Based on the book Ninety Days: The True Story of the Hunt for Rajiv Gandhi's Assassins by Anirudhya Mitra, it's a factual, rooted and engaging thriller designed around the probe into our former PM Rajiv Gandhi's assassination on 21 May 1991.
Well shot parallel tracks swinging between past and present show the planning, execution and further planning by Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) cadres and sympathizers, as well as, slow and steady advancement, hurdle facing and ultimate closure of the investigation by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
The series also gives a glimpse into the then complex political scenario between India and LTTE and the latter's staunch sentiment for their separate state in Sri Lanka.
Everyone has acted well. But watch out for Amit Sial's portrayal of ultra patient, strong and silent SIT head who is well versed with the system and it's surprises and remains unfazed and focus throughout the 90 days hunt of the mastermind behind the concerned assassination.
