If you think freelancers are just people escaping corporate woes, think again. Neeraj Pandey’s “The Freelancer” throws a curveball, turning a cop into a mercenary – not your typical coffee shop freelancer.
The Freelancer Unravels a Web of Deceit
The show kicks off with a mysterious suicide, pulling Mohit Raina back to India. Why? Well, a friend’s daughter got duped into a Syrian marriage escapade, courtesy of some shady characters. It’s like a twisted Kerala Story but with more drama and fewer coconuts.
Stoicism Meets Humor: Mohit Raina’s Grit and Anupam Kher’s Comic Charm
Pandey’s signature stoicism takes center stage with Raina, our brooding hero. Forget cracking a smile; these characters have souls as bruised as a banana in a lunchbox.

Enter Anupam Kher, Pandey’s go-to guy for comic relief. No matter how serious the scene, Kher’s straight face brings a dash of humor. It’s like having a stand-up comic in the middle of a war zone – unexpected, but oddly delightful.
Syria’s Encore: Action, Drama, and a Breath of Fresh Air
Syria, fresh from its Baaghi 3 stint, becomes the battleground once again. Pandey’s love for exotic locations and globetrotting escapades shines through. Cinematography is on point, and the action is slicker than a cat on an ice rink. There are intense confrontations for dramatic effect, but it’s the quiet moments that hit harder than an unexpected punchline.
Is “The Freelancer” flawless? Nope. But in a world drowning in erotica and expletives, it’s a breath of fresh air. Who knew blood could be so refreshing? It’s like swapping your daily drama dose for a shot of espresso – quick, intense, and leaves you wanting more.
So, grab your popcorn and settle in. “The Freelancer” might not be perfect, but it’s a rollercoaster you won’t regret hopping on. Who said mercenaries can’t be entertaining?
