Watched ‘Khakee: The Bengal Chapter.’ A mediocre series with below average acting by everyone. The show never sticked to its original story of organ trafficking. Only Ritwik Bhowmik made somewhat impact with his acting. The airport scene in last episode was hilarious.
This webseries is so well written & directed. Kudos to the whole team👏🏻. Each & every actor have not only played their part so well but also they have lived it. It tells you about dirty politics of Kolkata. Overall it is treat to watch.🍿@NetflixIndia#KhakeeTheBengalChapterpic.twitter.com/hXjTkS0eJh

When your core cast and crew are from the place where your show is set in, the content automatically comes out authentic. 2 episodes into Khakee : the Bengal chapter and its technically rich, casting is effin great, performances are strong. Loving it so far.
Khakee: Bengal chapter review: Despite few loopholes, khakee the bengal chapter is a good series with terrific performances,added with perfect screenplay,especially in episodes 4 to 7,where audiences will get entertained, thrill,added with violence. Rating: 8/10(Recommended).
Despite having a brilliant cast, #KhakeeTheBengalChapterOnNetflix fails to replicate the intensity of its predecessor. It lacks the grit & depth needed for a crime thriller. The plot is predictable & the character arcs are underwhelmeing. It's a mediocre watch & I'd rate it 2/5.
It's a pure class show with True blue Neeraj Pandey touch. What a Gritty, Engaging, Thrilling experience. Must, Must watch! 👏 & It's a better show than the first one BIHAR CHAPTER. Man of the match - @jeet30! 💥 U just loved his AURA throughout the show. #KhakeeTheBengalChapterpic.twitter.com/IGPb1zvWmn
#KhakeeTheBengalChapter is well made. The cast is exciting. Prosenjit is brilliant as Barun Roy. Jeet is stoic as Arjun Maitra. Sagor & Ranjit are fine. I expected so much more from Chitrangada as Nibedita but alas. Here's the problem 1/n
