You get names like IIMC and Dawood Ibrahim. It\u2019s realistic and makes it more authentic. But the real bold move is making reference to relevant present-day happenings from the real world and weaving them into the narrative.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is Sonali Bendre\u2019s comeback since her cancer battle four years ago. On top of that, it\u2019s her OTT debut. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sonali seems to be natural as Amina Qureshi, the committed editor of Awaaz Bharti and lends some much-needed maturity to the role. However Jaideep Ahlawat is the true hero of the series; he oozes confidence in every frame.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An interesting watch. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The British show&nbsp;The Broken News&nbsp;was a comedy, developed by&nbsp;Mike Bartlett&nbsp;for the BBC over a decade ago.&nbsp;Vinay Waikul\u2019s&nbsp;Indian show only borrows the name and is actually based on another TV show called&nbsp;Press.&nbsp;The show is about the battle for TRPs and stories between two rival news channels and their editors.
