Marathi serials seem to be experimenting with the thriller genre. In Marathi movies, there was always a flavor for crime and romantic thrillers. Now the TV audience too has welcomed serials with such themes. The latest addition to crime thriller serials are 100 days and Chahul. Both the serials are getting warm response and the viewers are glued to their TV sets in the time slot.
Previously, another investigation thriller Ratri Khel Chalena ( which went off air in October) got very good response and was praised for some excellent acting. The story was set in the Malvani region of Maharashtra which formed a perfect setting for the investigation thriller it was. The serial concluded winding up the story after revealing the true suspense. Ratri Khel Chalena , was undoubted a highly watched thriller.
This was replaced by the star studded serial 100 Days (on zee Marathi) which has Tejaswini Pandit and Adhinath Kothare. It is a crime thriller which is going strong among the audience curious to find out how actually does Rani ( Tejaswini) lay the trap for her husband and inspector Ajay Thakur.
Another thriller Chahul (on Colors Marathi) is a step ahead. It has a supernatural backgorund to it with a haunted town forming an apt setting for the story. It is about unrequited love from past life and it’s trails in this life. That is spooky!!
