CARTEL – GANGSTER SAGA ADORNED BY GREAT ACTORS
#ALTBalaji and #MXPlayer’s collab show ‘Cartel‘ is set in the backdrop of the Mumbai crime scene. Five gangster families have created a collab at the behest of Rani Maai (Supriya Pathak) the matriarch of the Angre family, the first family of the city’s crime scene. Each family owns a juicy piece of the crime pie – Dharavi is with Anna (Kannan Arunachalam); Mahim is with Khan (Anil George); the lucrative cab industry is controlled by Gajraj (Shubhrajyoti Barat); Chairman (Ashwath Bhatt) controls the film and cricket-betting industries. But the pride of Mumbai, Goregaon’s Aarey, is under the ownership of the Angres, controlled with an iron hand by Maai, along with her nephews Madhukar (Jitendra Joshi) and Arjun (Tanuj Virwani), and son Abhay (Rithvik Dhanjani). The peace is shattered when Maai is attacked and left for dead by someone.
The drama of revenge and retribution begins then and the bodies start piling up everywhere. 14 Episodes of around 40 minutes each are a huge time commitment. That’s why we review it for you.
