An artist, conman who makes his way through every tough situations before your eyes and you have no idea whatsoever about the con which is being pulled out in front of you! The perfect crime but yet the conman goes away without being punished or caught! The perfect art of stealing!
Matsya Kand is an Indian crime, thriller web series released at online streaming platform MX-Player. Premiered on the date of 18 November 2021. The lead character of the series Matsiya Thada (RAVI DUBEY) is a con man. His life turned from being an innocent person to a conman due to the incidents he had to face during his childhood. Although, he was sent to prison but in there he was blessed with a mentor. Where his mentor guided him how to be the perfect con man and take the revenge which he seek from his very childhood.
Although, I am not a big fan of Indian web series but a humble friend of mine requested pretty hard to watch the series and leave him a review. I guess, his request did not went in vain!
As the name of the series suggests, RAVI DUBEY
in and as Matsya and KAAND refers to as scams which are being performed by Matsya within the series. A conman doing his cons with his unique sets of skills of convincing, confusing and with unique disguises fooling the person in front of him and taking what he seeks. You will find all of these and additionally you will see twists in stories along the way. Even while each episode gets aired you will feel connected to every screens as if you are within the series. Season 1 has been aired with 11 episodes on it. The run time of each episodes 22-44 minutes.
Spoilers ahead :
Matsya, the boy who lost his army father was living with his mom. Later government gave them a petrol pump so that they could live peacefully using it for the rest of their lives. It did attracted a lot of attention thus his mother got married a second time thinking of her son and their security. Since the marriage was done the real face of step father started to appear in front of them. Slowly, it became unbearable by Matsya and at an early age he decides to do justice for him and his mother by taking revenge of from his step father.
At an early age he started doing con and successfully made his way out of some cons. But at a point he gets arrested and sent to jail for his actions. may that it be luck or co-incidence he meets an old man, who later becomes his mentor. This person taught him all the things he knew about con and made him realize he is better than what he was.
With the help of his mentor he successfully escapes from prison. Leaving him no option but to go after the person who he seeks revenge. During this fiasco, he meets different person along the way of his con, where he slowly encourages them to join him and accompany him along the way to build a team. Let me introduce you to the team.
Matsya was able to bring the character into fruition. His acting skills in different aspects was one of the reason which made me stick to the scene at every point. It was as if, he polished himself for this role.
Consequences! Well, you are going to do all these cons and hope for not getting caught, that is kind of a Childs play isn't it? The series also has a protagonist, who plays the role of a cop. He goes in search of the lead actor in the series making Matsya be more cautious at his next steps of cons. The screenplay was desirable to watch. In some chasing scenes you will feel like, what is going to happen in the next coming minutes. That goosebumps feeling will drive you crazy! At the end of the season one of the protagonist gets shot at and left at a local river. Who shot him? Why was he shot? Which character was shot? Watch the series to find out!
The person who Matsya is after, has gone so far in politics that he is practically impossible to grab. So the plan which he laid out was to grab the attention of another corrupt businessman and slowly getting close to him with his con and later driving the blow at the end. But at the end the businessman had no idea he was conned but yet he kept Matsya close to him for his future tasks.
If you are a fan of Money Heist or any of the crime thriller out there you might find this series quite amusing. Since the series is in the plot of India, it is available in Hindi language. But when did language stopped us from watching any series, anime or movies? There is always an option for watching any good entertainment movies/tv series/anime etc.
The IMDB rating of this series is 8.9/10. I would recommend to keep it in the watchlist if you have free time to spare. It is available in MX Player or in any torrent sites as well. The way series has ended it did not seemed like this was it! As if anything which is needed atm, is a sequel to its series. And looks like people are eagerly awaiting for its sequel to arrive.
