Riteish Deshmukh’s OTT debut Pill has all the factors that make it an interesting medical thriller. The director of the series, Raj Kumar Gupta, makes it a show that captures every element with perfection. It also shows the connections between medical giants, private hospitals, and corrupt officials. Additionally, it also focuses on the issues of class divisions, medical misconduct, and illegal drug trials. Therefore, the series will capture your attention right from the beginning.

Moreover, the direction also avoids complicating the narrative even while handling some heavy themes. Although the series has a good pacing, it was a little bit slow in the initial episodes. Moving forward to the performances, Riteish Deshmukh steals the show from the very first scene. He stays true to his character and perfectly conveys the message. Additionally, Pavan Malhotra in the role of Brahm Gill, is unpredictable and exceptional. Other supporting actors also played their characters well.
