The 10-episode series, adapted from Suhas Shirvalkar’s book, plays out brilliantly as a fantasy-thriller.

A still from Samantar 2
As Master Oogway of Kung Fu Panda puts it, one often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it. Samantar explores a similar principle as it follows the lives of Kumar Mahajan (Swwapnil Joshi) and Sudarshan Chakrapani (Nitish Bharadwaj), who are separated by 30 years. Kumar vows to change his destiny by reading Sudarshan’s diaries and avoiding the mistakes he made. The first instalment focussed on Kumar desperately searching for Sudarshan, who eventually warns him that one can never outrun his fate.
