The story is straightforward, the soundtrack is fabulous and the actors have the capability to hold the audience through the eight episodes. Spy thrillers are always tricky. It can either keep the audience hooked from the very beginning or the case could be the complete opposite. But with Mukbir - The Story of A Spy it seems the risk was worth taking. It is an immersive espionage thriller with a lot of heart. While the crisp storyline is a bonus, it appears rushed at times. The romance between the leads appears forced. Apart from this, Mukbir definitely appears to a series that has the potential to grab the attention.
