Detective Om Singh of the London Metropolitan is lugged down by the vicious blows that life has subjected him to. When a new case lands on his lap, his investigation points him towards , the girl’s father, Amar Roy (Purab Kohli). The charming entrepreneur and sponsor of an anti-immigrant bill has rubbed a whole lot of people up the wrong way and is an easily framed through easy trail of evidence pointing towards him for the murder of his own daughter.

 Amar’s daughter, Maya (Medha Rana), a British Indian kid with a desi accent, tbh, we understand in the aftermath of her disappearance, never saw eye to eye with her dad and lived away from the family in a college dorm. Her roomie is Carol (Shanice Archer), an immigrant whose testimony strengthens Om’s suspicion that Amar is responsible for Maya’s disappearance leads him to a trail to discover an underground cult of immigrants on a mission.

His teenage son Yash (Manvir Bawa) is in jail, serving time for a school shoot out he committed at his school. And at work, Om constantly ruffles the feathers of his immediate superior.

A psychologically scalded Om – some still call him “Father of Satan” (because of his son) – is on therapy and meds yet vapes to keep his sanity and psychological pain in check.

He soon starts finding evidence that the case of his son is somehow linked to the fate that has befallen Amar’s daughter.

Now, one gets ruffled when there is a connect between the killings conducted by Om’s son and the cult joined by Amar’s daughter. What leads the six episodes investigation into who is the dead, mutilated body recovered and how does it all add up.

Arjun Rampal is cool, suave and just the right mix of style and chutzpah. We love him too much. We just wish there was more time for Purab, who we also stan and we wish there were more scenes between the two of them.

We love the way the two single fathers bond over their inability to deal with the challenges of fatherhood. “It’s ok to be a bad father.” Amar says to Om

The cult guru Gopi (Gopal Dutt) and his herd of followers want to topple the world order by flocking up a frenzy against people of privilege and means in sewer tunnels underneath the city roads.

How Om sanitizes the situation and brings justice to himself and to others is the story of the six episodes
