The complete first season is streaming on Netflix.

What makes the show different?

Airport customs is rarely the centre of Indian crime fiction. That gives Taskaree a specialised setting where routine procedures can become part of the suspense. The characters are not simply chasing criminals after a crime has occurred. They are trying to identify concealment, follow financial and logistical clues and anticipate how an international network moves goods.

That gives the series a procedural side in addition to its action-thriller component.
