Scam 1992 Review

Overall, the web series is Great. It is worth watching for sure. The performance of the cast is as good as it can be. Pratik Gandhi is able to impress the audience with his mind-blowing acting. I would like to praise the casting director Mukesh Chhabra for not falling into the trap to cast who look alike the original characters. There are also some good Dialogues like “Risk Hai toh Ishq Hai” and many more. Everything including acting, cinematography, sets everything is as precise as it can be nothing is being overdone.
