The truth of each era is different. Each era has a different story. In our childhood there was a long journey of movies and television dramas, then came cable TV, came the internet, came streaming services, now the entry of web series.
The web series is an inspiration to digest the mystery of truths that today’s story demands of the screen. One such series is ‘Sevak’, which is currently airing on vidly.tv. The first episode has been released on the YouTube channel, access to the channel is necessary for the rest of the episodes.
Basically the story is based on the events of 1984 in India but it has deep roots in the land.
The series shows how movements are born, what revolutions cost, how revolutions are founded, how government policies turn man into man’s enemy, and if you’ve ever been a student of history, the countermeasures. What happens, even the sense of it, becomes a question.
The Kisan movement in India had its roots so strong in the 80s that it was discussed in the media of the whole world. Punjabi farmers’ movement, how did the talk of separate green land, why were Sikhs not safe there? Why did they start being massacred?
This story answers some questions and raises some questions. India belongs to Hindus only. His heroes are Hindus. After that, a large minority are Sikhs. It was not so easy to wipe out those from the roots of India then, nor is it now, but everything that happens in extremism has happened.
Places of worship were set on fire. An attack on a place of worship of one religion causes a strong reaction from places of worship all over the world.
More than two hundred thousand Sikhs were killed. There were incidents of violence and division of the province on the basis of language.
The story of this web series is based on the Indira Gandhi assassination case and the rapidly changing situation in India.
Vidya is a journalist and after her father’s murder, her newspaper is owned by Vidya and her brother Adwand. Vidya wants to talk about the facts while her brother is cautious as per the country’s situation that he also has to run a newspaper.
On the other hand, his sister has built a world apart from this materialism and religiousism, following which she has gone on dangerous paths in search of facts. He is contacted by a person in the Facebook world who has evidence of his father’s murder case and Punjab’s Shab Khoon.
He who has nothing to gain and nothing to lose becomes fearless like Vidya.
The story begins with the death in a road accident of a Punjabi film star, Jeet Singh, who was going to marry Dilpreet, and both die in a romantic scene after being hit by a truck.
Jeet Singh’s story now starts in flashback, even Vidya’s father’s life is going on in flashback.
It’s not a live story, it’s abstract art. The story of the series grabs full attention, the plot is so strong that even a single scene is missed, the story remains incomplete.
There is also such a rare form of art which was difficult to adapt to the screen because a country with all its civilization had to grow on another land.
Language, expression, civilization, culture and geography have been shown so richly that there is no thought of distance.
We may not remember many things, but we will remember the Babri Masjid incident, the Golden Temple tragedy, and the assassination of Indira Gandhi.
What was the story between these events the author has written for which the choice of professions among the characters is the most vivid. Journalism Film and Civic.

This eight-episode web series is based on the policies of the RSS and the BJP and their reactions. Two episodes have been aired so far.
Saji Gill is the author of this series. Anjum Shehzad is the director while Naveed Nashad has given the music. Every single member of this team deserves praise.
There were so many questions to ask Anjum Shahzad, author of this shocking series, we settled on a few. He said, ‘The idea came that the world is now a global village. Anything that happens somewhere affects you. It is a neighboring country which also has similarities in culture, so I felt this is the time for this story.’
Answering a question, he said, ‘The most important thing was knowing the language, the culture, the mythology there, and the philosophy of seeing everything accordingly. The language had to be presented and visualized in the correct sense. I used to read and write Hindi since childhood, it helped a lot.’
He further said that ‘History and religions were also his favorite subjects, so this study and hobby came in handy. The series was to be written in a month, in which previous hobbies, detailed studies and the habit of constantly reading the details of the happenings also came in handy. All this proved helpful.
“Also, India’s self-made documentaries have been very helpful.”
How difficult was it for him to present this story here? In response to this question, he said that ‘Web is the age. The web has given a lot of freedom to the subject. If it was about TV, it might be difficult. An important thing in this is the interest and work of director Anjum Shahzad. Not every director would be willing to do this story. It wasn’t easy.’
“Filming it, creating the atmosphere of India was very difficult,” he added. The art team has done a great job. Some three or four languages are spoken in it, which we do not speak. It was very difficult for the actors to speak them with full skill, to adapt to the role, but now the feedback is coming from all sides that it seems that this is India.’
For the first time, a drama on this topic has been screened from Pakistan and it has touched the senses of the viewers. Web series present the harsh truths of life in a very unique way but don’t seem fake like a TV drama.
These series have not only given the writers and directors a wide canvas of story but have also engaged the discerning viewer.
‘Sevak’ has breathed life into the decaying pages of history. Which will be discussed for a long time.
