The series is a tribute to the armed forces, and deservedly so.The aftermath of the suicide attack on a bus full of Indian soldiers that killed several was the stealthy bombing of a Jaish-e-Mohammad training camp in Balakot. In spite of the fact that Pakistan shifted its camp from Bahawalpur to Balakot, the diligent work of an undercover asset, Iqbal (Satyajeet Dubey), led to a successful mission.On the Indian side, are Kashyap Sinha (Jimmy Shergill), a strategist who suffers from PTSD after a failed mission in Serbia, that has left him without taste buds, and a twitchy, intense demeanour; Madhusudan Dutta (Ashish Vidyarthi), head of the National Security Bureau, Manisha Bharadwaj (Lara Dutta), a social media spin doctor and several earnest people slogging away on computers. The Pakistani team has a hawkish Raqib Askani (Ashutosh Rana), his media expert Shireen (Samvedna Suwalka), Jaish's Yakub (Umar Sharif) and his crew of terrorists. India has managed to get two undercover agents into Yakub's inner circle, who risk their lives to get intel to India. The Americans and Chinese drop by to add authenticity to the goings-on. &nbsp;

MUMBAI: Sony LIV’s latest drama-thriller, Your Honor produced for Applause Entertainment by Sphereorigins, is all set to release. In a special interaction with indiantelevision.com, Sphereorigins founder Sunjoy Waddhwa shed light on the making of the series. The original Israeli series was created by Ron Ninio and Shlomo Mashiach and distributed by Yes Studios. The Indian adaptation is helmed by Shool fame, E Niwas. The series is headlined in India by popular Bollywood actor Jimmy Sheirgill. The makers decided to cast Sheirgill because they wanted a face who can look more relatable to the audiences, who looks like a family man and not just a judge. The series was shot in 2019. It took 65 days to shoot the entire series, but seven months went into research, followed by four to five recce of the location. While in reality most of the mafias were based out of North India and Mumbai, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh are usually shown as the crime capital. Hence, Waddhwa decided to take a different route and chose the backdrop of Ludhiana, Amritsar, Chandigarh and Mumbai believing it will give a different tone, texture and colour to the series. Around 60 to 70 per cent of the series was shot in Punjab. More than 125 people were involved in creating this drama thriller. Waddhwa says, “A lot of effort went into the pre-production and designing the look and character of actors, giving authentic touch in terms of language and costume. The director, writer, production designer, they all worked collectively to give the show a more rustic feel.” In the series, Bishan Khosla (Jimmy Sheirgill), is a reputed judge whose teenage son Abeer (Pulkit Makol) is involved in a hit and run case. The victim of the accident is the son of a gangster. So, a lot of time went into the legalities. Waddhwa sought help from advocates and legal advisers to understand the details. He mentions, “My takeaway from this has been that the importance of having the script in hand and working properly as per the script and doing good research makes life easier.” As the shooting took place in the months of December and January, it was extremely cold. Apart from that, technicians and technical crew and fight master contributed to make it a scaled up version of television. As it is not a VFX-heavy series, the makers relied more on shoot material. “The entire shot taking and story thought process is very different as compared to a normal series. It is more like an extended film rather than a series. Most importantly, there was no set of rules, that it has to be made like an OTT show,” he further adds. When asked about dealing with comparison to the US adaption, Waddhwa quips, “For a Hindi-speaking audience it is a completely different show. Because this is in the dynamics of our situation. What value you add to the adaptation makes all the difference.” The original rights of the series belong to Applause Entertainment. Waddhwa also hints at making the sequel of the series after gauging audiences’ response.

Mahie Gill said, “It has been a delight to be a part of this series, which had a fantastic first season. As an actor, working on a show like Your Honor 2 was a rewarding experience. With a strong narrative, talented cast and a successful first season, the excitement for the second season is a notch higher. Hoping for the audience connect with Your Honor 2 as much as they did with the first one.”Gulshan Grover added, “Content is blooming on OTT, and it feels great to be a part of the second season of such a popular show on SonyLIV. I have thoroughly enjoyed playing the character of a businessman who also is a powerful gang lord. Season 1’s incredible story gave me the context to develop this character. I am sure the face-off between Bishan Khosla and the powerful underworld will be an incredible watch.” The first five episodes of Your Honor 2 started streaming on November 19 only on SonyLIV. &nbsp;

Balika Vadhu has been a cult concept for Hindi Television in India and on the renowned channel, Colors. The first edition of the show was iconic in all ways possible and had a strong effect on the minds of TV viewers. Child marriage, though is an issue that is not much heard of, especially in the vast urban land, this evil social still prevails in the rural sects. &nbsp;Well, the second edition of the supremely successful show only means that it will be harrowed with comparisons from the past in every phase of its tenure on TV. Certainly, Balika Vadhu when it came on air, was huge and had a strong script with great actors. &nbsp;We at IWMBuzz.com will not want to review the new edition of Balika Vadhu by keeping into context this comparison factor. &nbsp;Let us understand that it is a huge challenge for the writing and creative teams involved in playing around with the same broad concept around child marriage, yet coming out having an identity of its own!! We are happy to tell you that Balika Vadhu 2 has successfully managed to have a skin and colour of its own in its initial look and feel and even with regards to its story build-up. &nbsp;Set in Gujarat, Balika Vadhu 2 starts off heralding the great understanding, friendship and bond between the best of friends Khimji (Anshul Trivedi) and Premji (Sunny Pancholi). The two of them can never shy away from giving their life for the other. While Premji was shown being saved from the clutches of the police by Khimji in the opening scene of the show, Premji has sacrificed a lot and has always prayed that his friend Khimji be blessed with a baby girl. &nbsp;The bond of friendship between Premji and Khimji has been beautifully encapsulated with sequences that provide goosebumps as well as tears of joy. Actors Anshul Trivedi and Sunny Pancholi are tailor-made for the roles they play. They are so natural in their emotions that viewers are sure to feel the strong bond of their love for each other. &nbsp;Actors Ridhi Shukla as Ratan, Anandi’s mother and Shiju Kataria as Sejal, Jigar’s mother provide great support to the men. &nbsp;We have promised our readers that our review is in no way comparing the first edition with the second. But one aspect that we want to strongly point out is that even though Balika Vadhu in its first edition had a stronger cast, this one is not far behind. Balika Vadhu 2 might not have big names like Anup Soni, Surekha Sikri, Satyajit Sharma, Smita Bansal, but the actors who have been gotten on board are very natural performers, quite capable of stealing the limelight on the basis of their performances. &nbsp;Adding more value to this statement that we have made, we tell you that one should watch out for the performance of Kumkum Das who has been an asset in Gujarati theatre and cinema. Her portrayal as Kadwi Baa will surely impress all the critics. &nbsp;Also, it is a revelation to see Rashmi Gupta, who was seen as a glam doll in Guddan Tumse Na Ho Payega coming up with such a de-glam, powerful role of Leela. She has certainly made many people notice her for the class act that she is here!! Shekhar Choudhary who plays Leela’s husband is good. &nbsp;The story in its first week has been pacey, with loads of twists and edge-of-the-seat drama. We are simply in love with the ambience and the look and feel of the village that has been set up. The opening scene wherein Premji attends a mass child marriage ceremony was a visual treat. &nbsp;The screenplay has been tight, with no loose ends left for the viewers to pick up their remote. The drama has been realistic, with the makers touching upon varied social evils in the very first week. &nbsp;While the act of child marriage has been clearly shown to be an offence, with the police constantly being there to stop the crime, the makers have also got into the women abuse issue too. Leela is humiliated and abused by her husband Bhavaan (Shekhar Choudhary) as she is not capable of becoming a mother. Also, the dowry system and how menacing this social evil can turn out to be, in a girl’s life has been shown with the death of Kadwi Baa’s granddaughter Sarita’s story. &nbsp;Melanie Pais who has always played the modern girl roles looks proficient in doctor Sharda’s role. &nbsp;The wedding scenes of Anandi and Jigar were shot realistically. It will be interesting to see how Shreya Patel and Vansh Sayani get into the skin of the roles of Anandi and Jigar. &nbsp;Overall, a very good start considering that there were too many expectations from this new season of the cult show Balika Vadhu 2. Sphere Origins has handled this concept really well in the past and is taking this phase ahead in the right direction. &nbsp;Last but not the least, kudos to the writing team; the dialogues are powerful and strong. &nbsp;If only the comparisons do not diminish the charm of the new product, Balika Vadhu 2 will shine on. Hope the makers keep the storytelling as different as chalk and cheese when compared to the earlier edition. &nbsp;We credit Balika Vadhu 2 with 3.5 stars out of 5. &nbsp;
