So now you can have a guess how good this series is. It has a slow starting pace so the viewer has to see it with the patient. Some very new and interesting debates are from real life like farmer protest, JNU protest is recreated in Tandav.
Tandav is not a hundred per cent fresh series but is inspired by a series on Netflix that is House of cards which are known as the encyclopedia of politics. Some stars like Frank, Clair and Dug are copied the same with an Indian touch. Some people are saying it a fabulous series and come viewers don’t like it. But it is all your taste and choice weather you like it or not.
There are all 9 episode of 30-40 minutes each and season 2 of Tandav is also expected soon.

The actors working in this series are very precisely picked and used very carefully for every character Saif Ali Khan, Gauhar Khan, Sunil Grover is all very talented and knows what they have to play and how. Zeeshan Ayyub Khan who is playing the role of Shiva who is a student icon of his university and Samar Pratap Singh wants to use him to increase his political powers and how all characters change themselves with time for their benefits are shown in this series.
