4. Tabbar

5. Mumbai Diaries 26/11

While there have been detailed reports and documentaries about what happened on 26/11 in Mumbai, few of them are from the perspective of doctors and first responders. That said, this is still fiction. So take it as such.

6. Grahan

This highly rated web series revolves around the Anti-Sikh riots of 1984. IPS officer, Amrita Singh’s father is accused of involvement in the riots, she sets up an investigation to find the truth and have him acquitted. This is a bit of a cliche but Grahan hits you deep and there will be times where it just shatters your heart.

7. The Empire

The first season of the show tells the story of Mughals coming to India with Babur. The show got a lot of unwarranted hate for one reason or another but it’s a pretty addictive watch. That said, do not go in expecting Game of Thrones!

8. Gullak Season 2

Gullak might have been on TV for a bit but season 2 of the show was just something else. We follow the Mishra family, comprising Santosh and Shanti Mishra and their sons Anand and Aman live the quintessential Indian middle-class life and deal with the problems that come with it.

9. Hey Prabhu Season 2

IMDb describes the show as the story of “a common man Tarun Prabhu and his unbelievable journey.” And that is not an exaggeration. ” My dude has a lot of issues in life and like every other millennial he has to work with people who don’t make it any easier.
