Positives:
  1. Raghav's comment: Mere dost ki biwi isse bhi badi jadugar hai. Woh uske ek mahine ki salary ek ghante main gayab kar deti hai. 🤣 This deserves applause. This deserves a positive # 1. This deserves to be at the top of anyone's list of jokes next time they watch a magic show. And it also deserves Trisha's expression!
  2. Damn I loved the opening. The way Raghav and Trisha were enjoying a magic show. I absolutely loved the glances, the low conversation, the laughter, and the expressions. They just happened to be at the scene and that's why they became part of the crime and the investigation.
  3. OMG! Inspector Dave is back! Darn after Adaalat I missed seeing Inspector Dave. Glad to see him back.
  4. Gauri gets a proper see off. Well done CVs. I didn't expect this, but well done.
  5. Raghav goes against orders. Nicely done. Finally the rebellious side to his character!
  6. The little bit of forensic investigation by Rajbir and Bikram. Nice!
  7. Trisha's personal side with her fight with her Mom.
  8. Hypnosis. Zareno's dad was in Adaalat as well. He was a criminal who used hypnosis as well.
  9. Raghav suspended and trapped by Zareno.

Negatives:
  1. That damn stupid Darr Sabko Lagta Hai tag. It covered people's faces! It was really, really annoying.
  2. The intro turned out to be too long. After a few minutes I started getting annoyed with both Zoreno and Dhanraj Singhania.
  3. Zareno as Raghav's friend. I would really have liked it to be strangers. Not a friend helping a friend. Not really a negative, but it's kind of a negative for me.
  4. Revealing the tricks. Was that really needed? Couldn't more time be spent on the investigation instead?
  5. Really? Making newspaper headlines so fast? Damn it's only been 4 hours! Do newspapers get printed every few hours suddenly?
  6. Lack of investigation. Damn it where it is the investigation?!! We're 25 minutes into the episode and still no investigation!
  7. All messed up and disjointed. I'm confused. This was supposed to be about Singhania's disappearance and murder right? Then why are we centred around magicians? And why is there so much personal stuff? And why nothing about Swati except that she's part of the team now. This is confusing.


I'm sorry, but this is confusing and a bit disappointing and there's still a second part...

Honestly when it started it looked really good and interesting. I couldn't wait for more. I wanted to see more. I was expecting something very detailed and great. But this looked more like a haphazard mess of several different shows. CID had a magician's case way back in 2004 or 2005 where the magician used hypnosis to commit murders. They stole from that. Adaalat had a case of a magician. They didn't just steal from that, they also brought in Inspector Dave and M whatever-his-name-is as well. I remember something similar in CSI Las Vegas. Like seriously they've screwed up and the only thing I really liked were the small one or two scenes in between a messed up episode.

This episode gets only a 1.5 from me out of 5. Maybe tomorrow's episode will turn out to be a bit better.

Ct shreya. Your reviews are akways very detailed, informative and authoritative. Looks like you are a great fan of mystery.
Todays episode was very messy , boring and confusing. Its disappointing to see the show that started out with a bang has fizzled out so badly. I think cvs should also understand that magicians are illusionists and dont perform real magic. Its ridiculous to see Trisha pen floating in air or a ball suddenly materializing in that lady magician's open palm.

I remember in CID as well in one episode, the magician stares at the keys hanging across the corridor and they come flying to him so he can escape. Real silly and goofy stuff.

^ Yes absolutely. I love the mystery and thriller genre.

I don't remember that in CID. But maybe it was one of those that was never posted online.

I feel that even this type of magic has some type of science to it, some type of hidden trick. But the way they were showing it was too much.

Episode copied from Adaalat. And inspector Dave and zorrino's father too.
Is it so easy to hypnotize people? And make things move by telepathy? An episode that was less of investigation and more of magic.

Jadooo...Teri nazar!

Hey Shreya... I always love your analysis... They are always awesome... very informative and detailed... Am extremely sorry that I had not replied on your review on my thread on previous epi... but from now on I will try to do... and yes... The newspaper part was a big blooper...

Really joke was awesome... too cute and Trisha's expressions were priceless...
Her and her mom's convo was kinda cute...
Rajbir's and Bikram's investigation today was awesome and I loved a rebel Raghav... too good...

The darr sabko lagta hai... was really too irritating... Thank god aaj toh nahi hoga vo...
Though the epi was messed and lacked the needed Raghav's observations but okay... chalta hai kabhi kabhi... really can't wait for tonight's episode...
