A still from 'POW: Bandi Yuddh Ke' and 'Homeland'

Adhering to the clichés of Indian television, Nikkhil Advani's 'POW: Bandi Yuddh Ke', which went on air on Monday evening, was riveting. The director utilised the show's 38-minute runtime effectively to highlight the lives of two grieving families whose sons have been 'missing in action' for the last 17 years, ever since the 1999 Kargil War.
