Ghoul is Netflix’s first horror drama miniseries set in
India which is mostly about religious profiling in the name of patriotism.
Radhika Apte’s character, Nida is a part of NPS- National Protection Squad – a
staunch nationalist in a government security agency that is in charge of
counter terrorism.
Radhika, who was last seen in Netflix’ Lust Stories and
Sacred Games, is fabulous as always. But with Ghoul, she is just one dark and
depressed role away from becoming a DC universe character!
WATCH THE VIDEO below to find out whether we found the
show to be bingeworthy or cringeworthy:
Ghoul is set in a totalitarian near-future India, where a
mysterious prisoner is sent to a remote military interrogation center where he
turns the tables on his captors by exposing their most shameful secrets and
unleashing a demon from Arabic folklore.
Verdict: It’s not your edge of the seat thriller, there
are no jump scares. And yet, you hang in there to find out what happens at
the end. You’re intrigued by the confined settings. And most importantly, you
want to know more about Ghoul.
