As the internet bombards you with all type of shows to watch, we thought why not narrow it down and bring to you some of the best shows the world offered in 2023.

Prashant Nair, Randeep Jha and Avani Deshpande skilfully delivered the aftermath of the tragedy. This series focuses on the detailed investigation done by the Krishnamoorthy couple seeking justice for their two children who lost their lives in this tragic incident that took place in Uphaar Cinema, Green Park, New Delhi during the screening of “BORDER” film around 3 P.M. in the afternoon.
Trial By Fire is shown from
the view-point of the Krishnamoorthy couple, potrayed by Abhay Deol and Rajshri
Despande. This duo started the ‘The Association of Victim of Uphaar Fire
Tragedy’ and fought for more than 20 years for justice to be served.
The star cast put on a
brilliant performance and delivered the powerful portrayal, injecting in-depth
vulnerability into their characters. The series highlighted the negligence of
businessmen and other people involved in the theatre. The last episode shows
the tragic event and zones in on the languish suffered by the grieving parents.
I cannot contain myself
while talking about the amazing editing work and the mesmerizing background
score. The technique of montage had the created viewers hooked. The rhythm and
timing of the editing can divert the flow of any story and it was done in such
a skilful way, maintaining continuity and shot composition creating a visual
impact.
This series isn’t necessarily an
easy-watch, as it tears down the blindfold and exposes the harsh reality of how
money plays an important factor in the way a person will be treated, and it
seems, not much has changed in the following years.
King The Land:
A
rom-com Kdrama filled with charm and amazing cast.
Director:
Im Hyun-Wok
Genre:
Romantic Comedy
Star
Cast: Lee Jun-Ho and Im Yoon-Ah
Available on: Netflix
King The Land filled with outstanding chemistry and charm with great screen presence of Jun-Ho and Yoon-Ah with unmatched demand of the drama. Heir Goo Won who cannot stand Cheon Sa- Rang’s fake smile, that she has exceled at while working as a hotel concierge. Soon the pair create the romance where they can smile brightly at each other.
K-dramas
have gained a lot of popularity lately throughout the world. Dramas like “What’s
wrong with Secretary Kim?”, “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon”, “Forecasting love and
weather” and many more are counted as the most watched k-drama.
King The Land has everything; comedy, romance, humour, love and
friendship. The drama revolves around a charismatic chaebol (in Korean meaning:
A large family owned business conglomerate) and a fiercely independent woman
from a humble background who is thrilled to land a job at Kings Hotel, where
she had some happiest times as a child.
Although
it was very much common to spot the favouritism showed in all these rom-com
drama used in a comedic way but at some point it should be taken seriously as
it is not ethical to prefer your partners at the workplace and pose threat to
professional standards.
The
show has enjoyed immense popularity and has become one of the most-watched
shows in Netflix over last few weeks. Immerse yourself in the world of “King
and Land” and witness the unforgettable journey of love, power and destiny.
