Story

“Indian Police Force” follows the well-trodden path of a dedicated police officer, Kabir Malik (Sidharth Malhotra), battling against terrorism in the heart of Delhi. The series kicks off with a bang – literally – with explosions rocking the city and setting the stage for a thrilling chase between Kabir, his senior officer Vikram Bakshi (Vivek Oberoi), and the mastermind behind the attacks.

Think “Singam” meets “Simmba” on a web series platform. The show boasts all the signature elements of a Rohit Shetty film: high-octane action sequences, gravity-defying stunts, and enough slow-motion close-ups to make your head spin.

Performances

While the plot might not surprise seasoned viewers, the series is saved by some strong performances. Sidharth Malhotra delivers a refreshing performance as Kabir, showcasing a more restrained side alongside moments of action hero bravado. He even throws in some surprising bursts of profanity, adding an unexpected layer to his character.

Vivek Oberoi shines as the seasoned cop Vikram Bakshi, while Shilpa Shetty brings a fierce presence to the role of ATS Chief Tara Shetty. The supporting cast, including Shweta Tiwari and Sharad Kelkar, also deliver memorable performances.

Visually Stunning

“Indian Police Force” isn’t just about action sequences, though there are plenty of those. The series boasts beautiful cinematography that captures the essence of Delhi, featuring iconic landmarks like Humayun’s Tomb and Purana Quila. While some musical interludes might feel like a pacing bump, they add a touch of Bollywood charm to the experience.

Verdict

“Indian Police Force” might not be breaking new narrative ground, but it delivers exactly what it promises – high-octane action, a familiar cop vs. villain plot, and some stellar performances. The shorter, half-hour episode format makes it perfect for binge-watching, and the overall Bollywood-style experience is sure to please fans of Rohit Shetty’s work.
