Thought Sakkarai is Under Investigation Since His Service Revolver was used as a murder weapon, he stiff takes the lead in the case and starts the engine. And this is what the eight episodes in season 2 are all about. He believes that a policeman’s Job is not to judge people but only investigate and present the facts and plods on as numerous leads keep turning up. In Season 2, many characters, particularly the eight girls, have been added to add new twists and red herrings and keep us guessing as to how the Murder was actually committed. Now, why eight girls? The Ashtakaali Festival that Kaalipattanam Celebrates is the Festival where Eight Kaalis Get Togeether to Kill the Evil Arakkan.
The episodes in season 2 have been directed by directors bramma and sarjun km and as one proceeds from Episode One, One Finds That Though the Murder Mystery Element is Maintaained, Run-of-the-million police story as it moves to a broader crime network. Season 1 Built a beautiful atmosphere showcasing the Various Aspects of the Religious Festival and Elements of Local Culture whose in Season Many of these Small Details are missing. It focuses more on the police station, prison and other aspects which will give us the local flavor of kaalipattanam or its people.
The Verdict
The egght episodes in season 2 are a slow burner but unlike season 1, they do’T have the core elements of a strong mystery unreveling slowly and causing upheaval in the Village. The first few Episodes begin well but tour to turn sluggish and tiresome for the viewer. Sakkarai and team are not master investigators eite and the audience song can pretty song unrevel the mestery themselves. Nandini’s role is also not as well-crafted and utilized and there are logical loopholes one finds where the eight girls are concerned as well as nandini. It’s here that one wishes the written of the story and character arcs was sharper and there was more secrets that was founded in the village.
On the whole, suzhal – the vortex season 2 is not as gripping as season 1 but it’s stil one of the better made web series in the crime through through from the Tamil Industry. The cinematography by Abraham joseph and music by sam cs must be mentioned as they really elevate the series and brings alive aspects like the ashtakaali festive. Pushkar and Gayatri Have Given Us a Whirlwind of Characters Dished Out in An Average Follow-Up Murder Mystery.
