@Sunflower: I agree with you. It definitely mirrors season 1. I would actually like to see how 9/11 affected India (if it did in any special way) in terms of security measures and what not.

But I hope it isn't a rip-off. I think the politics of India are not represented so accurately on-screen and it would be refreshing if they are able to show it in a more realistic frame. Or else it might be the same trite thing as always.

Either way, I agree with you. Cast is great. I love the character of Chloe so I look forward to seeing the Indian version of that...if that actress does well, she's gonna open the door for new opportunities.

I hope he is in it too.

Yes - which would be great reason to see this - if the other members of the ensemble cast had not been incentive enough!

I love the limited episodes format - the bane of Indian TV is not that they focus on family politics or love stories (nothing wrong with either genre if done well). The problem is the daily show format. When you are scrambling to shoot an episode to deliver to the channel, there's very little room for good work.

I loved all the characters of course "Jack Bauer" tops the list. As I felt he had a very good professional life but a horrible & sad personal life.

I agree about the Indian laws or law enforcement is not shown accurately on screen and the serial makers do not know how to mix fiction with a touch of reality. Rip off in this show wont work as India has different policies and laws then the USA.

Cast is certainly great, when the show will start then we would be able to know how much changes they have made.
