Zee5’s latest thriller, Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas, has finally premiered on the platform. Despite its promising cast and intriguing premise, the film has received a mixed response from viewers after its release.
Starring Arshad Warsi, Jitendra Kumar, and Ayesha Kaduskar, the film carried strong expectations. The story follows Inspector Bhagwat, who is transferred to Uttar Pradesh to investigate the case of a missing girl that soon turns dark and mysterious.
However, many viewers have pointed out striking similarities between Bhagwat Chapter One and Sonakshi Sinha’s Dahaad on Amazon Prime Video. They believe Dahaad handled the theme and tension more effectively, leaving this new thriller feeling like a rehash.
Performance-wise, audiences have praised Jitendra Kumar’s grounded acting and his on-screen chemistry with Arshad Warsi. Their interactions bring depth to an otherwise uneven script and help keep the story engaging for a while.
Despite a suspenseful build-up, the film’s climax fails to deliver. The ending feels rushed and leaves viewers underwhelmed. What could have been a gripping thriller ends up feeling like a weaker version of Dahaad with an unsatisfying payoff.
