If you're looking for a binge-worthy title, the streaming giant has a clear answer for you. The crime thriller Kohrra is back on screens, earning a rare 100% rating from critics.
The series, originally in Punjabi (also available with English dubbing), is not just another crime drama on the endless list. The first season built a reputation as "the best series in a long time," according to Unilad.
Kohrra (In the Mist) isn't about cheap effects, but about complex characters whose personal demons are just as important as the investigation itself. Critics on Rotten Tomatoes agree on a perfect score, and people on social media are highlighting its precise writing.
Viewers' reactions are clear: it's a gem worth watching. The portrayal of society's dark corners, unexpected twists, and dark humor make it an experience beyond the usual detective show.
What's the series' plot?
The series is described by Netflix as a "slow burn," meaning it builds tension slowly but intensely. While the first season revolved around investigating the murder of a groom found dead just days before his wedding, the new season shifts to the city of Dalerpura. Here, a new dark case unfolds: the murder of a woman whose body was discovered in her brother's barn. The list of suspects is long and even includes the victim's closest family.
Beloved assistant sub-inspector Amarpal Garundi (Barun Sobti) returns to the forefront, but the investigation dynamics get a whole new twist. He gets a new commanding officer, Inspector Dhanwant Kaur (Mona Singh).
The contrast in their methods drives the second season. While Garundi is instinctive and laid-back, Kaur brings a cool methodical approach and firmness. Together, they must delve into Punjab's dark underworld, where the truth often hurts more than lies.
Both seasons are currently available on Netflix.
