Gulshan
Devaiah,
after
Mard
Ko
Dard
Nai
Hota,
is
returning
to
the
screen
with
another
chilling
character
who
is
playing
with
life
and
death.
Amazon
Prime
Video
recently
unveiled
the
trailer
of
their
upcoming
show
titled,
Afsos.
The
streaming
service
has
called
the
series,
as
a
suspense
thriller
about
a
suicidal
man
who
hires
a
deadly
assassin
to
kill
him.
Starring
Gulshan
Devaiah,
Anjali
Patil,
and
Heeba
Shah
in
the
leading
roles,
Afsos,
takes
a
look
into
the
lives
of
depressed
people.
The
mental
illness
that
leads
one
wanting
to
take
their
life,
can
be
a
heavy
burden
and
for
our
lead
character,
Nakul
aka,
Gulshan
Devaiah,
its
a
way
out,
but
can't
get
that
right
either.
In
the
trailer,
Gulshan
talks
about
feeling
insignificant
and
wanting
to
take
his
own
life.
After
his
11th
attempt
fails
he
hands
over
the
task
into
another's
hand.
A
shady
organisation,
run
by
two
assassins,
who
hand
him
a
rate
card
for
how
he
wants
to
die.
In
exchange
for
a
hefty
amount
Gulshan
then
places
an
order
for
an
assassin
who
is
set
to
shoot
him
in
the
head.
But
after
figuring
out
he
wants
to
live,
Gulshan
has
no
option
but
to
outrun
his
killer.
The
events
in
the
trailer
then
turn
into
suspense
as,
Gulshan
is
trying
to
run
away
with
his
therapist,
Sholka,
played
by
Anjali
Patil.
However,
according
to
the
trailer
he
does
get
killed.
Anjali
can
be
seen
yelling
out
Nakul's
name,
with
blood
splattered
on
her
face.
Heeba
then
can
be
seen
walking
away
from
the
scene
with
a
gun
tucked
in
her
shirt.
Another
scene
shows,
Nakul
standing
next
to
his
own
body
in
the
hospital,
(which
to
be
honest
could
be
a
dream
or
a
hallucination).
The
show's
official
description
also
calls
the
series
as
a
dark
comedy,
it
says,
"A
suicidal
man
and
a
deadly
assassin
encounter
the
world
of
immortality
in
this
black
comedy
suspense
thriller." It
hints
that
Afsos
is
more
than
a
cat
and
mouse
chase,
and
we
might
be
able
to
see
Gulshan
develop
a
bond
with
his
assassin.
Afsos,
is
sure
to
send
a
chill
down
your
spin
with
the
talented
cast,
good
story.
The
dark
comedy
will
also
share
some
interesting
concepts
like
a
group
of
killers
assisting
in
suicidal
people.
Ujjwal
Chopra
in
the
trailer
can
be
seen
complaining
about
how
there
is
no
dignity
in
killing
people
who
want
to
die.
The
trailer
also
sets
an
unusual
tone
for
the
story.
While
most
of
it
comes
off
as
an
ironic
comedy,
it
quickly
turns
into
something
dark
to
something
supernatural.
The
text
in
the
trailer,
warns
one
about
being
careful
what
you
wish
for,
in
life
and
in
death.
The
eight-episode
series
is
directed
by
Anubhuti
Kashyap,
who
was
part
of
films
like
the
black
comedy-drama
Dev.D
(2009)
and
crime-drama
Gangs
of
Wasseypur
(2012).
Written
by
Anirban
Dasgupta,
Sourav
Ghosh
and
Dibya
Chatterjee,
Afsos
will
air
on
Amazon
Prime
Video
on,
January
17,
2020.
