What does it take to make a good thriller?
A captivating storyline and an edge of the seat suspense that grows with every passing scene or when the protagonist rises up against all odds, making it a truly nail-biting climax? Well, as an avid thriller-enthusiast, I can assure you that Hello Mini 2 is the mix of all of the above.?
A catch your breath, grip your seat kind of thriller is hard to come by and when it comes to making it a web-series, the challenge increases ten-folds, but MX Player has managed to give us the perfect one!?
In 2019, MX Player gave us a psychological thriller?Hello Mini, that followed Rivanah¡¯s (Anuja Joshi) struggles as she fought hard against a stalker and the show was exhilarating, I binge-watched it.?
Now, I can happily say that season 2 for this epic series is out and is even better this time around. The show brings back the characters of Mini (Rivanah), her boyfriend Danny and has added a ton of new ones along with a way more interesting storyline.?
After watching all 10 episodes in one sitting, here is why you need to stop what you are doing and watch this series now!
The character of Rivanah has been at the centre of the show since season one and this time, Anuja Joshi took it up a notch. She portrayed every emotion possible with gravitas and dedication. From acting like a jealous girlfriend to owning her sensuality through the series, we got to see many aspects of MIni¡¯s character and that definitely took the story to a whole new level. By the end of the series, she is no longer the scared, flustered girl as she stands up and takes charge against her stalker.?
In the last season, we saw what happens to your life when you are stalked by an obsessed man, but this time they kicked it up a notch. In this season we are introduced to the deadly game of Dare-Defy, a super dangerous game that is set in the dark web. In order to maintain the surprise element, I am not going to tell you what the game exactly entails, but it will blow your mind.?
After being forced to participate in this dangerous game, things begin to unfold and rapidly spiral out of control for Mini, she becomes a key suspect in a murder investigation & her life quickly unravels. This whole segment made me stay at the edge of my seat till the very end.?
In this series, we find out whether ¡®Stranger¡¯ is a friend or a foe which is a big revelation after the build-up from season 1. This season also ends with a major cliff-hanger that left me shocked and it will throw you off as well.?
