Review of Human

10/10
A must watch series showing how the rich and powerful ruin the poor in India

Warning: Spoilers
Human is a must watch series. It is a story of the pharmaceutical industry and private healthcare's ravenous appetite for profit at the cost of human lives.

Each episode is gripping and you would be hoping that the good characters do get justice. But in your heart you'd know how hopeless the system is for them.

In Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, a pharma giant and an elite private hospital collude to fast track the development of a drug, despite knowing its fatal side effects. The poor become sacrificial lambs at the secret clinical trials.

The rich and powerful have set up a system to con poor patients into participating in the clinical trials. The side-effects are quite grotesque and scary. Many are dying, but their deaths cannot be connected to the faulty drug.

There are many things to like in Human: its themes, the potboiler screenplay, the tight filmmaking at work and the performances of the actors.

Shefali Shah's is fantastic as Gauri. It is not just one of her best roles ever, but also one of the best characters in an Indian web series till date.

It's a must watch series showing how the rich and powerful ruin the poor in India.
