Having read the book just a couple of months ago, I can say that incidents in the series have been dramatized (to make them more exciting). In the book, Amit Lodha was not directly involved in the capture of the antagonist. He was sitting in his office and directing the entire show; but the actual catching of the gangster was done by his men. However certain amount of dramatization and exaggeration is to be expected when the book gets transformed into a series. Very well made. Bihar of 90s and 2000s was a unique place - mafia, politicians and police often coalesced in each others territory. Some Criminals were hailed as robinhoods while at times police hardly put up any resistance to criminals and extortionists.Without resorting to swear words, abuses or intimate scenes, Neeraj Pandey has managed to craft a gripping and well-acted series. The lead actors have done a competent job of acting, even if there is nothing exemplary. However veteran actors like Ashutosh Rana, Ravi Kishan and Abhimanyu Singh are a delight to watch. The author IITian IPS Amit Lodha has written down a memoir that reads no less than fiction, It was really a wonderful wonderful read. 3.5 Stars Pintu Mahto is living a normal lifestyle in Bihar along with his family.

"Like every human being, I also wanted good posting," he said. I recommend this book if you enjoy reading a fast-paced, simple action-filled story with no deep layers. On November 25th, it began streaming “Khakee: The Bihar Chapter” on its platform. The web series is officially based on the book “Bihar Diaries,” written by IPS Amit Lodha on his chronicles in Bihar. From Delhi Crime and Paatal Lok, to more recently Special Ops: Himmat Singh and the just announced Indian Police Force – the police and the cases they investigate make for gripping drama on OTT. While critically-acclaimed international police investigative series such as Mindhunter and Bosch are also popular among Indian audiences, Indian cops have also become an in-demand genre. Here’s a look at the expanding line-up of police dramas.Overall, the web series is a full-fledged entertainer and a must-watch to understand Bihar, as the state is much more than what is often captured in movies and television shows. It is not the state of Chandan Mahtos, Mohammad Shahabuddins, and other gangsters; rather, it is the Karma Bhoomi of Amit Lodha and others him who wants to reclaim the lost glory of Bihar – the once cradle of Indian civilisation.
