There is nothing about Ali Abbas Zaffar’s Tandav that makes it stand out amongst its peers in the fledgling world of India’s web shows. For starters, it has none of the cinematic grit or the powerful writing that shaped politically-charged Indian crime thrillers like Paatal Lok and Sacred Games. Nor does it offer a palette of well-fleshed out characters present in trailblazing productions like Mirzapur and Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story.
