Within minutes of dropping its first episode, the hashtag #ChaddiBadal was trending at number one. Not for the reasons you might think. There were no dance numbers, no car chases, and (thankfully) no clichéd love triangles. Instead, Episode 1, titled “The Unravelling,” delivered something far more terrifying for a Hindi web series: brutal, uncomfortable, laugh-out-loud satire.

That moment sets the tone.
