Hiren Kotwani | Times of India: 3.5/5 | 7/10
Even though based on a book, this Ajay Devgn-produced series makes a compelling watch for its suspense, drama and excellent performances by an interesting ensemble cast ... Full Review
Rahul Desai | Film Companion: - | 4/10
It’s strange: Vikas Swarup’s chaos should have synced well with Dhulia’s anarchy. Instead, we have a bloated crime series that resembles the security detail at Vicky Rai’s party. No less than three guns made it inside. Maybe the guards need to be interrogated, too ... Full Review
Shubra Gupta | The Indian Express: - | 5/10
A mixed bag. The Great Indian Murder provides us moments of pleasure as it winds its way from start to finish of the first season, if you manage to stick with it ... Full Review
Saibal Chatterjee | NDTV: - | 6/10
The Great Indian Murder squeezes just enough life out a sudden death to last the distance. It serves up homicide and home truths with some effort to spare. Watchable all the way ... Full Review
Bollywood Hungama: 3/5 | 6/10
THE GREAT INDIAN MURDER keeps one hooked from start to finish and rests on some excellent performances. However, a few questions are left answered. In addition, the ending is too abrupt and it might disappoint a section of viewers ... Full Review
NDTV Gadgets: - | 1/10
Possibly the Worst Thing Disney+ Hotstar Has Made. The writing, direction, acting or the filmmaking don't have any sense of power to make you care per episode, like on an anthology level ... Full Review
Shubham Kulkarni | Koimoi: 3/5 | 6/10
Pratik Gandhi & Richa Chadha’s Whodunnit Drama Is Intriguing In Flashbacks But Half-Baked In Present. Tigmanshu Dhulia does leave his comfort zone to make the show, but some notes do fall loose ... Full Review
Anna MM Vetticad | FirstPost: - | 5.5/10
An eccentric mystery show that revels in its pulpy, convoluted, cross-country plot ... Full Review
Sukanya Verma | Rediff: 3.5/5 | 7/10
Tigmanshu Dhulia's earthy touches, perverse humour and queasy depiction of the upscale and underbelly revels in pulpy and devious twists ... Full Review
Nandini Ramnath | Scroll: - | 5/10
The writers’ struggle to manage a never-ending list of characters and contrivances soon becomes evident and exhausting ... Full Review
Cinema Express: 2/5 | 4/10
The series goes around in circles. Each episode picks up a clue, skips back and forth in time, and joins in with the night of the murder. I’m all for subplots - except when they start to meander ... Full Review
Cinestaan: 2/4 | 5/10
Convoluted procedural lacks cohesion ... Full Review
Binged: - | 6.5/10
Lengthy, But Mostly Adequate Whodunit ... Full Review
Money Control: - | 4/10
Much ado about nothing. An adept ensemble cast including Pratik Gandhi and Richa Chadha can’t lift Hotstar’s new crime series, lost in a cluttered sprawl of settings and twists. ... Full Review
High on Films: - | 5.5/10
An bland and messy show. The cast though manages to keep the show watchable, even though the show does remain itself open for a second season, should the makers pitch in, which again begs the question – Is it too much to ask for a complete story? ... Full Review
India Forums: 1.5/5 | 3/10
Cluttered screenplay & underwhelming execution makes 'The Great Indian Murder' a tough long watch ... Full Review
Desi Martini: - | 5/10
Captivating, but in bits. The show takes time to pick up. It seems extremely lengthy and some scenes feel unnecessarily stretched out ... Full Review
Lehren: 3/5 | 6/10
An Interesting Murder Mystery. What unfolds is fairly familiar territory but mercifully without disgusting visuals ... Full Review
The Quint: 3.5/5 | 7/10
An Engaging, Rewarding Crime Drama. The Great Indian Murder is meaty enough for almost everyone to watch and feel full and satisfied ... Full Review
PinkVilla: - | 5/10
All in all, The Great Indian Murder has some good moments, but overall ends up being a not-so-great murder mystery ... Full Review
Peeping Moon: 3.5/5 | 7/10
A riveting murder mystery that will keep you guessing till the end. Director Tigmanshu Dhulia has once again created a gripping story garnished with his stellar craft. With co-writers Vijay Maurya and Puneet Sharma he has superbly adapted Swarup's novel to the Indian mileu ... Full Review
The Print: - | 6/10
The Great Indian Murder has the usual tropes of a tried-and-tested political drama with sparks that don't turn into a blazing fire ... Full Review
Poulomi Das | News9 Live: 1/5 | 2/10
Death of logic, acting, and imagination. The screenplay is dull and uninteresting, littered with cliches about power struggles, patriarchy, and family dysfunction ... Full Review
