    TV Review. Indian Police Force. Amazon. A Hindi-English series about a counter terrorism unit in Delhi. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Police_Force_(TV_series)

    This is a pretty good show, it fairly accurately depicts terrorism and counter terrorism in a modern country. It does have some Indian tradition story telling regarding the personal lives of the main characters, there was a dance/singing scene! but it wasn’t out place.

    Melburnian here so when the power goes out in the Delhi apartment of the terror cell I’m all like" Youse guys are fucked, Special Ops is outside your door " But no, it’s just a power outage in a capital city for no reason, no storms. It’s India.

    The military theme music is a little cringy but it’s ok. The graphics and special effects are good. So many pairs of Rayban Aviators. Only 10% of the men have a moustache.

    And approx 10% of special forces is women, which is sorta in keeping with the rest of the world.

    I give this 4 hobbits.

    ( I do miss Irrfan, when he smiled he would light up the room. )
