IC 814 Review: A Riveting Hostage Drama on Netflix

IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack Story marks the debut of Anubhav Sinha in the world of series, now streaming on Netflix. This gripping show, featuring a stellar cast including Vijay Varma, Naseeruddin Shah, and Pankaj Kapur, takes on the real-life story of the longest hijack in India’s history.

On a regular flight from Kathmandu to Delhi, 170 passengers, including children, pregnant women, and senior citizens, face a life-threatening ordeal. What was supposed to be a short journey turns into an eight-day nightmare. The series captures this terrifying incident with precision, thanks to the direction by Anubhav Sinha.

Sinha, along with Trishant Srivastava, Adrian Levy, and Soumya Tiwari, leads the writing team that crafted a nearly four-hour long script. The storytelling is sharp, supported by real footage that adds authenticity. The series skillfully integrates government and decision-making bodies’ responses, portraying the complex political dynamics without taking sides.

In its final episode, IC 814 poses questions rather than providing answers. Did the decision-makers make the right choices? Were their actions sufficient? The audience is left to decide.

The series excels in many areas: crisp editing, sharp dialogues, impactful music, and commendable camerawork. The cast, featuring Vijay Varma, Manoj Pahwa, Arvind Swami, and others, deliver remarkable performances, each contributing to the tension and drama.

Overall, IC 814 is a must-watch for those who enjoy hostage dramas and politically charged narratives.
