Plot

Sanitation worker Vasant Gawde (also known as Vasya) is the protagonist. A simple blessing gives him the magical ability to foretell future occurrences, completely altering his humdrum and poor existence. The series recounts how he discovers his newfound magical abilities and how they shake up his otherwise ordinary existence.

Review

When it comes to acting, Bhuvan Bam is totally faultless and can switch effortlessly between sympathetic poverty and the haughty aristocrat. He is carrying the whole narrative on his back and the story never drags because of that.

Good work may be found by Shriya Pilgaonkar and her co-stars. However, nobody of them has a particularly memorable moment since the whole plot focuses on Bhuvan Bam. While JD Chakravarthy may not have had as much time on screen as the other actors, he steals the show in every scene. His humour, fury, and menacing smile are all spot-on.

Man! This is refreshing to watch. #Taazakhabar
I’ve literally become fan of @Bhuvan_Bam ‘s work.

The script is very realistic and captures the essence of each character. Although it is grounded and easy to relate to, the plot of ‘Taaza Khabar’ is too predictable to keep viewers engaged. Almost every twist is something one might have seen coming.

From the very first moments of the scene’s opening, the whole scope of the script is foreseeable. What the director has succeeded in doing effectively is contrasting two very distinct aspects of Mumbai. While there is abject poverty on one end of the scale, the director has also nicely shown the other extreme of the luxurious side.

After ‘Dhindora’, ‘Taaza Khabar’ have another realistic acting by Bhuvam Bam and a more engaging storyline, making it a good choice for a one-time watch.
