The people who rated it low i don't think that they got the point of dystopian future it is a community or society that is undesirable or frightening. And I think in near future there will be peace cause their are so many people who can get easily manipulated on the things like religion or different ideology. It's not about anti hindu or anti muslim it's the reality of people who are blinded by the false beliefs of their community. And about the people who gave bad review they didn't even watch the whole 1st episode on what basis u are judging the series. Maybe the base story is similar to handmaid's tale. I gave it 9 cause bollywood can try something new rather then commercial masala.

Sure, it's inspired by The Handmaid's Tale, but it's also a timely mirror to frightening political scenarios around the world, in which women's reproductive choices are being dictated by patriarchs. Ignore the fanatic criticism in some of the reviews below, which only see this as a "Hindu-bashing" series. It's secondary to the story of many societies that are developing a sort of moral absolutism as a growing backlash to modernity, economic empowerment, and freedom of thought and lifestyle. It's a way for those in our societies who are frightened of what they don't know to retain or assert power over others they see as a threat to their sense of self. Timely, important and culturally relevant to everyone, not just Indians.

This show actually depicts kind of future this country is gonna have if we continue on our current path. And this show has received low ratings just because the majority can't handle the bitter truth that has been thrown into their face. Because people in India can relate to this kind of future maybe 50 years from now. The storyline is pretty good, actors have done justice to their characters. Huma Qureshi has always been a good actor. I'd recommend everyone to watch it. The low ratings are just from the haters.

The show was really good👍.. I have no idea why people are finding it so offensive. Watch the show and decide for yourself. If u consider "sacred games" 10, leila is 8.5...definitely worth a try

I don't know why these right wingers are so afraid from these fiction pieces (same thing happened with Mulk last year) that they run a propaganda against films/shows which show the immediate/possible reality of the world. But these people think these are Anti-Hindus, Guys atleast watch it so many people earn their livings, think practically. And, I have always same question, that how brittle are their sentiments that potentially get hurt by fictional stories. Now, about the show - Yes it's not perfect as it has pacing issues but it hits all the right notes, from story to screenplay to the acting performances. Watch it before judging.
