Kankhajura Movie Review: The Indian audience has a peculiar love for thrillers. The reason, makers milk the popularity and cash in on it from time to time. The influx of OTT has further boosted the genre’s popularity. In the sea of thrillers comes Kankhajura, SonyLiv’s latest offering. In a world that is running against time and patience tested every moment, director Chandan Arora dared to come up with a slow-burn thriller, the one that’d make you impatient because the makers want you to zoom in on the actor’s emotions. But is sitting through the eight-episode series worth it? Let’s find out.
Kankhajura boasts a stellar cast. It has Mohit Raina, Roshan Mathew, Sarah Jane Dias, Mahesh Shetty, Ninad Kamat, Trinetra Haldar, Heeba Shah, and Usha Nadkarni. And each character holds a special place in the series. The story begins with Ashu (Roshan Mathew) joining his brother Max (Mohit Raina) for a party after his fresh departure from prison after 14 years in a murder case. He tries to find refuge in his family and seeks validation from his brother. His feelings are reciprocated, but seemingly out of a sense of duty and not affection.
