For the last two years, Boman Irani has done almost no acting in films. Only two-three of his films were released this year – 83 (Farokh Engineer), Jayesh Bhai Jordaar (Prithvish) and Runway 34 (Nishant Suri). The reason for this must have been not getting good roles. Now Boman Irani has entered the OTT platform with the recently released web series “Masoom”. Boman, who started his acting career at the age of 44, will once again surprise everyone with his acting in the 63rd year of his age, this is the promise of this web series. In this web series set against the backdrop of Punjab, Boman has become a doctor, whose family members’ mutual relations become the cause of tension in every episode. Innocence is like a very bitter medicine, so watch this psychological series carefully. Its story moves a bit slowly and the visual structure weighs heavily on the mind.
Sophie Petzel wrote a series for Britain’s Channel 5 in 2018 – Blood. The Indian adaptation of this series is the web series – Masoom, produced by Reliance Entertainment and Namit Sharma. The director of this web series is Mihir Desai whose web series Mirzapur has made a distinct identity in the field of OTT. Television writer Satyam Tripathi (Shaurya Aur Anokhi Kahani, Hitler Didi, Ek Mutthi Aasmaan) has given this web series the spirit of Punjabiyat. Lyricist Ginni Dewan, who worked with Mihir Desai in Mirzapur, has composed some beautiful songs and poems in Masoom. Budding music composer Anand Bhaskar has composed the music for these songs, but the background music composed by Anand for Masoom is just a small introduction to his excellent talent. Cinematographer Vivek Shah of Inside Edge and Love Hostel has captured the Punjab that is beyond the world of mustard fields, bhangra, lassi and drugs. Manan Mehta’s Kainchi, who worked with Mihir Desai in Mirzapur, has edited the innocence by threading the innocent.
Nikki (Samara Tijori), the youngest daughter of Dr. Balraj (Boman Irani), returns to her village after her mother Gunvati (Upasana Singh), who has been bedridden for many years, dies under mysterious circumstances. Nikki suspects her father because such incidents keep happening one after the other, which deepens her suspicion. Nikki’s elder brother is gay and her elder sister is having a fight with her husband and at the same time Dr. Balraj is having an affair with a nurse. Because of this, Nikki keeps doubting her father again and again. Episode by episode reliving many past incidents and seeing her father’s actions, Niki wants to blame her father for killing her mother, but circumstances take such a turn that Boman confesses to her that his mother He was the one who did the murder. The first season has been ended with scope for season 2.

Mother’s poem read in mother’s condolence meeting
When she recites a poem written by her mother at her mother’s condolence meeting, she moves the audience. Even in the emotional scenes of the last episode, his crying seems comfortable. It is strange to see Upasana Singh in a serious role for once, but in the role of a bedridden wife and mother, she has shown that she can do something different beyond just a comic character.
