The world of web series has engulfed not just the Hindi film fraternity but the entire globe with its craftsmanship and charm. It has given all the established and aspiring filmmakers a major platform and opportunity to express their thoughts and opinions with ease and effortlessness. And all the actors, with an indefatigable thirst for meaty roles, have relished on such fantastically written parts and almost resuscitated their ailing careers.

The newest show to join the bandwagon is Bard Of Blood, another Netflix presentation that features Emraan Hashmi, Viineet Kumar Singh, Jaideep Ahlawat and Sobhita Dhulipala. Based on the novel of the same name, it's the story of a RAW Agent who embarks on a mission to rescue four RAW agents that lay captured in Balochistan. The central character is played by Hashmi, who's one of the most underrated and unfairly overlooked actors we have. It has been a while since he saw a scintillating success at the box-office, and there couldn't be a better platform than Netflix to make him reach out to a wider audience. He has hung his boots as the serial kisser and is now drawn to parts that challenge him emotionally and physically, and Bard Of Blood is an attempt to veer into a space he hasn't explored before.
