REKKA

---







The first interesting thing about REKKA is the name itself. Its a very unique and unusual title for a novel as well as a web-series. This name will instantly draw attention of the bengali audience. Its a masterstroke. Recently I watched REKKA on HoiChoi and loved it tremendously. I watched all the nine episodes back to back. 


Azmeri Haque Badhon as Mushkan Zuberi is admirable, amazing, adorable, astonishing, alluring, angelic, astounding, appealing, awesome, beautiful, bewitching, breathtaking, brilliant, captivating, charming, classy, coquettish, dazzling, delicate, delightful, divine, daring, elegant, enthralling, enticing, excellent, exquisite, exciting, fascinating, fabulous, fantastic, flawless, gorgeous, glorious, graceful, haunting, heart-stopping, ideal, impressive, incredible, junoesque, jaw-dropping, killer, kissable, lovely, luscious, mesmerizing, magnificent, marvelous, mind-blowing, nice, naughty, noteworthy, overwhelming, pretty, pulchritudinous,  pleasing, queen-like, quaint, ravishing, radiant, refined, remarkable, splendid, sensuous, salacious, stunning, superb, seductive, spectacular, titillating, thrilling, terrific, tantalizing, unbelievable, unique, voluptuous, wonderful, yummilicious, youthful and zealous. Words will always fall short to describe Mushkan Zuberi. If you need just one reason to watch REKKA then simply watch it for Azmeri Haque Badhon. 


Rahul Bose as Nirupam Chanda is at his usual best. Anirban Bhattacharya as Ator Ali is interesting especially his mannerisms and accent. Anjan Dutt as Kharaj Khashnobish is excellent. All the other actors are quite good. The individual name of each episode is apt. The intro is captivating. The use of rabindrasangeet and its picturization in this web-series is marvelous. The director's cameo is note-worthy. The scene on the top of Shahid Minar is fascinating. The drone shots are amazing. The web-series slowly but interestingly builds up to the tête-à-tête between Mushkan Zuberi and Nirupam Chanda in the sixth episode. The seventh episode contains content which is extremely graphic and has some disturbing visuals. Some members of the audience may be traumatized by it. The last shot in the ninth episode is fabulous. Anyways the web-series ends on an interesting note and hopefully we will get to see REKKA Part-II in the near future...
