11 Feb
Summary
- Preet Bajwa's murder investigation reveals exploitation.
- New season explores migrant workers' plight in Punjab.
- Barun Sobti and Mona Singh deliver strong performances.
Kohrra 2 returns to its unsettling Punjab setting with the discovery of Preet Bajwa's body in a barn, initiating a new murder investigation. Assistant Sub-Inspector Amarpal Garundi, now in Dalerpura, works alongside sub-inspector Dhanwant Kaur, portrayed by Mona Singh. Their partnership, initially understated, develops through shared professional challenges and personal vulnerabilities.
The investigation into Preet's death steadily uncovers layers of strained family relationships and hidden traumas. The narrative takes a darker turn with the discovery of chained men, victims of bonded labor, burned alive in a warehouse fire. This reveals a disturbing look at exploitation within Punjab.
The series expands its scope beyond a murder mystery to examine the harsh realities faced by migrant workers. These individuals, hailing from various Indian states, are trapped in inhumane conditions. The show does not shy away from portraying this uncomfortable truth.
