#PaatalLok is loaded with strong socio-political commentary & is easily the best show to have come out of the Indian web space in a long time. Its noir-ish origins give it a distinct edge. Kudos to @AnushkaSharma for investing in gritty stories that strongly speak to our times. pic.twitter.com/eSgudtXDfF

#PaatalLok everthing & everbody is brilliant!

The 2nd most awesome thing about the show is that it actually ends - makers don’t fool the audience saying “you’ve watched it for 7 hours, now wait for another year to know how it ends”

The Best is Hathiram !
Hats Off @Jaiahlawat ? pic.twitter.com/IY3h0pjfT0

My filmmaker’s heart is full of joy. I just saw PAATAAL LOK. The best crime thriller I have seen to come out of this country in the longest time, maybe forever.

peeps, drop whatever you're doing n bingewatch all 9 episodes of #PaatalLok on Amazon Prime ??

after all how many mainstream Indian shows are there making such potent commentary on caste, rising RW fundamentalism, queer rights, media & the churn in the nation's underbelly?!

For so long, YRF monopolised Punjab by showing it as the land of the large-hearted, lassi-loving, bhangda-dancing, balley-balley stereotypes. #PaatalLok presents such a strong counter to that narrative, pulling the mustard-coloured rug from the feet of old-school escapist fare.

Just end up watching #PaatalLok. Its really a great watch. It conveys the story behind a criminal's mindset. It shows us that the worst people are the good ones among us. We all are in the paatal lok. @PrimeVideoIN @AnushkaSharma #PaatalLokKeLog pic.twitter.com/wxEUgmFYPh
