Breathe is Indian own version of True detective kind of drama.

While watching this you will have a thought that the day you all are praying that in India we will have a series as compelling as american series like true detective, Fargo and many more.

Once you will watch first episode your hand will automatically slide to next episode and next till the end.

All have given there best in performance, Madhavan plays a loving single dad who does what he have to. Question is not about right and wrong when it comes to family everything seems right.

Hoping that this kind of cinema prevails and thanks amazon for doing this right cheers !!

The audience is for sure tired of the melodramatic indian tv series. This was a great change which should be a lesson for the other tv writers to come up with such contents that keep you hooked. The performances are amazing along the story. Amit Sadh has done an amazing job and R.Madhavan shines through out the series. What an amazing performance!

The only glitch according to me was the finale. Even though they put up a great twist yet I thought the makers were in a hurry and wanted to wrap the show up as soon as possible. The finale looked like a compromise to me, they could in fact do better than this.

Anyways, apart from the finale I found the rest of the show really interesting and original.

I had no doubt that this TV series won't be any less than your Netflix Originals, but the way they executed this 4 episode mini-series, I'm awestruck.

This tells us what lengths a man and/or a parent can go for their loved ones where they even lose the decision power of deciding what's right and what's wrong and what's ethically/morally/legally right and wrong.

Both R. Madhavan and Amit Sadh played a tremendous role, specially Amit, as he was playing sane/insane guy, but Madhavan too was awesome as he was playing that guy who everyone want to be but won't accept if they knew his reality.

I don't usually write reviews, but I had to write for, and this is my way of giving an standing ovation to the team and Amazon for this.

Awaiting for the next season.

Ov'r n Out GSB

In one word "Superb". It has brought every ingredient you want for perfect masterpiece thriller web series. Every person in it nailed it with their roles. Finally, i got something for praising Indian TV shows. It has really come after a long wait, which will remember as revolution for Indian TV shows. you won't be bore for a sec. It will take your breathe.

This is one amazing show. And all credits to amazon and producers of baby for bringing this. This is one of the best india TV show i had ever watched and one of its first kind in Hindi TV/Web show industry

The show is a great mix of emotions and crime. Madhvan is really good actor and had done superb job. Unlike usual indian movie/tv show, there are no stupid background songs or display of over-acting.

Plot is good and writer had written each episode and crime wonderfully

The show revolves around the life of two loving fathers, which coincides in the middle of the show.

Worth a watch

I was not expecting much from this series but oh boy this changed as i went to second episode. Really this is on par with hollywood stuff really best screenplay story acting amazing must watch for any die heart fan of thriller series.

Last year I was especially happy to see a movie like Bahubali 2 come up with some good graphics and story line that matches international standards.

This year I see the same improvement in Indian TV thanks to initiatives from Amazon Prime.

What a show, awesome acting, storyline, and excellent screen play. I was really getting tired of watching serials like CID and the usual Indian household melodrama. Kudos to Madhavan for choosing and delivering in a good project.

The story is about a father who tries to bump up his son's name in the list for receiving an organ donation. The father, played by Madhavan, is not a bad person by nature, but will go to any extent to protect his son who is in need of an organ donation. On the other hand we have a dedicated cop, played by Amit Sadh, who is a great cop but often gets into trouble due to his habit of coloring outside the lines.

Very different and well executed. Madhavan and Amit Sadh are a total delight to watch. I was totally hooked for the first four episodes and I cant wait for the remaining four to come out!

If you really standing against international level , then this series deserve 7 stars But, 10 stars is not enough if you are comparing to regular indian shows! I think there still work need to do in editing department , this series should have been just 5 episodes long. Sometimes its just feel lengthy.

Overall great effort, i think indian entertainment soon to see good content

A story of getting his ill son the organ, the father looks for each and every possible way. Madhvan shown as a footballer coach turns out to be a killer for getting his son back to life. The story takes a turn when one of the organ donor, where the suspense begins. It's almost takes an unpredictable turn again in later part before coming to end as well. Overall the story has everything that you need in a thriller. Great plot, acting, superb background score and dialogue. Definitely watchable for thriller lovers.

I was pretty excited to see Amazon going in with Desi content. Finally the male audience would return to the television, and there ll be an option to escape from the drivel of multiple zoom fests, screaming contests, background cacophony laden sorry excuses of series that we have been tortured with on the Indian tv in the past decade, or so I thought. Hopes evaporated within 2 episodes of Breathe.

Poor direction and lousy editing doesn't helps the series get off the ground. Not only is the series utterly formulaic (and fails at that as well), it has been executed poorly while leaving in some basic mistakes. The lingering disappointments came to their elements in the form of the series finale. Episode 8 was not only utterly predictable, but it was done even more poorly. The last few lines and acts were cringe worthy, reminding one of the low budget movies. There seemed to be no intent to compete with the international standards and instead, the makers conveniently took the easy way out by serving an under-cooked dish while banking on a glossy platter to bail them out. I expected better from an Amazon original series.

One of the best and indeed After Sacred Games this is the 2nd best Indian TV series..

Thanks amazon studios for making an Indian web series which has an international standards.I felt their acting and the camera work very excellent.I felt like i was watching an English tv series.we are looking forward for more of such type of Indian series.

It is entirely diffrent plot which many would be surprised at,Mayank Sharma has nicely written and directed,very Extraordinary Direction,infact initial couple of episodes narrate two parallel stories, things go parallel from fourth episode "bad fish" and torque is amazing, every character leaves impact ,prahlad joshi is impressive as sub inspector with humorous one liners. R Madhavan as senior most member did justice to his character masscarenous ,Amit Sadh is show stopper and I think his best performance till date. It's Must watch. It's better than mirzapur of prime in many aspects.

Very interesting and a thriller one.. The best to watch. Best one

The acting is superb.. everything is good never seen an indian tv series this good

Lot of Unrealistic events like police harassing people just because they doubt them. But madhvan's acting is awesome so it's a one time watch

Brilliantly done, this Series has been such a thrill to watch from beginning to the end. Kudos to the Actors, Director, Scriptwriter and the entire team. Hardly write any reviews but couldn't resist to Review this series. 10/10.

I watched it purely cause the trailer showed 2 good things...one...Bombay, i love when films/ series show bombay in a clear way...it catches my attention..watched Mc Mafia also for the same reason...2nd reason was Madhavan...So the rating is precisely for these 2 reasons..cause the plot of the series...is not entirely convinicing, the acting also...including Amit's character seems like its loosely based on other interesting and better cop film characters the director liked and litterally asked them to follow that...the built up was good...but there are way too many loop holes..the only reason i would continue watching is cause i already watched 5 eps...and cant stop watching...till i kno the ending obviously..if some one tells me...whats gonna happen..i will save my time!! But kudos to madhavan for taking up the job...i wish to see him more..in down to earth characters..!

You could feel the complete anxiety of the situation, and this nail biting plot and Madhavan on the screen will be a great treat to watch. You would just breathe out every second in thrill

Superb..👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻... Madhvan rocks.. story fantastic.. Makes u emotional too in parts..much better then many shows moving around..
