The show can be called well-written and well directed. The cases were very interesting to watch. They had so much potential and plots in them, that one could not easily depict its ending. The cases also included personal matters and relationships of the group members which made it even more exciting to watch and left the viewers at the edge of their seats during the episodes. Almost every case holds 2-3 episodes which made it less boring and more engaging. There were some really nice twists and turns. However, the ending was more of an anticlimax. The audience was expecting a better ending and was willing to see more of the relationship of the main leads. This made the ending seemed rushed. The cases were definitely very dramatic and exaggerated, but the chemistry between the actors, fast-faced plotting scenes, storyline, etc made it quite interesting to watch.
