A gripping Netflix drama that fans are devouring in a single sitting has made a comeback with its second season.
The crime thriller, hailed by viewers as the ‘best in a long time,’ was streamed for an impressive 11.5 million hours following its 2023 debut, as reported by FlixPatrol.
If you’re searching for your next binge-worthy series, you might want to consider watching Kohrra.
This Punjabi-language show, also available in English, centers around two police officers investigating the death of a bridegroom, found lifeless just days before his wedding.
The investigation is spearheaded by seasoned cop Balbir Singh (Suvinder Vicky) and his younger partner Amarpal Garundi (Barun Sobti), who face their own personal challenges as the case unfolds.
Their probe reveals hidden secrets within the victim’s influential family, including his uncle Maninder Dhillon (Varun Badola) and others tied to the mystery.
The series has received a flawless 100 percent score from Rotten Tomatoes critics, with viewers expressing their admiration for Kohrra on social media.
A Reddit user described it as the ‘best Netflix series in a long time,’ while another confessed to watching it all in one day.
“An absolute gem of a series in terms of writing the complicated, layered characters,” another fan commented.
“Couldn’t agree more! Must watch,” echoed another viewer.
On IMDB, the consensus seems to be that Kohrra is a ‘slow burn’ but ‘worth the hype.’
“I agree that it is a slow burn, but what else do you expect from a suspense-based crime thriller?”
Another viewer described it as ‘real, rugged and raw,’ adding: “The portrayal of Punjab’s dark underbelly is eerily real – the twists, the messed up romance, the dark humour keep you gripped till the very end.”
Kohrra returned for its second season on Wednesday (February 11), set in the town of Dalerpura.
Netflix’s official description states: “The story unpacks the murder of a woman (Pooja Bhamrrah) found dead in her brother’s (Anurag Arora) barn, a growing list of suspects including her own husband (Rannvijay Singha), and two officers determined to chase the truth to the end.
“The Netflix police procedural crime drama returns with the beloved Assistant Sub-Inspector Amarpal Garundi (Barun Sobti), who begins anew, far from his roots in Jagrana under a new commanding officer, Sub-Inspector Dhanwant Kaur (Mona Singh).
“She’s restrained, methodical, and firm where it matters, making her a striking contrast to Garundi’s more casual, instinctive persona. Brawn and brain come together as they peel back the layers of this complicated case, even as it lays bare their own vulnerabilities.”
Both seasons of Kohrra are currently available for streaming on Netflix.
