After watching this could-be future reality series, one feels that certain people are really scared about division and the power of democracy. Also, there are many assumptions on how women will be left completely powerless as men around them will try to use them for their agendas. Emotionally driven women will be left out of any choice and they will be squandered and even brainwashed.

Well, the series seems to be a major panic attack of several women who feel following one kind of Dharma or one set of rules of life will completely rip them off their freedom. Also, water being scarce becomes a very simple problem that none of the other world is concerned about. You don't see wide acceptance or resistance to this idea of Aryavartta, which feels highly impossible and improbable with the kind of World we live in today.

If such a Dharma or set of rules are attempted to be brought back there will be a situation of World War which can end the existence of Human kind as we know. For a novel, such an idea seems to be explorable but as a series or a drama or a film, it needed to consider all realistic possibilities and answer such questions too throughout the first few moments. This series tries to invest us in panic than in a world that feels realistic.

It tries to tell you about how genuinely bad divide and rule is, but it fails to establish how so many people fail to resist it. Rather it tries to say that lack of water and scarcity of resources made some dominate the world leaving others to die. Had the series tried to marry the fiction with realistic possibilities and expand better as a script for film, it could have been engaging.

With good performances from cast like Huma Qureshi and Siddharth, this remains a watchable series if you think about really spending your time watching a series otherwise it doesn't really engage you much or demand your attention like a Chernobyl or TVF's Yeh Meri Family.
