Review Of ZEE5’s Abhay 3: Fatigued And Boring
Abhay Season 3 (8 Episodes) Directed by Ken Ghosh Rating: ** Kunal Khemu is back as the sultry sleuth solving serial slayings. This time he looks as bored as we feel.

As the plot gets thinner the killings get more macabre. Abhay was never fun to watch. Homicide is serious business here. With exhaustion overtaking the shock value we are left with only some | Click Here...
