After much anticipation, the makers have finally released Aashram Season 3 – Part 2 on Amazon Prime Video and MX Player today (February 27). Directed by Prakash Jha, the series stars Bobby Deol, Aaditi Pohankar, Chandan Roy Sanyal, Tridha Choudhury, Sachin Shroff, and Darshan Kumaar in key roles. The latest installment promises unexpected twists that will leave the audience intrigued.
Plot: The Battle for Justice and Revenge
The story picks up right where Aashram Season 3 – Part 1 ended. Pammi (Aaditi Pohankar) is imprisoned after being declared guilty in the sexual assault case she filed against Baba Nirala. While in jail, she learns of her mother’s passing but is denied permission to perform her last rites. Witnessing her unwavering devotion, Baba Nirala is moved and orders her release on bail.
However, Pammi’s return to the Aashram as a sevak is not what it seems. Beneath her submissive act lies a burning desire for revenge against Baba Nirala. Will she succeed in her mission, or will she fall into his trap once again? The answer unfolds in Aashram Season 3 – Part 2.
Direction, Story, and Screenplay: Engaging but Lengthy
Prakash Jha, known for his masterful storytelling, delivers yet another gripping installment. His direction ensures that every character gets their due, making the narrative impactful. The screenplay is engaging, but the episodes tend to feel stretched, with editing by Santosh Mandal leaving room for improvement. Some scenes could have been trimmed by 10-15 minutes for a tighter, more immersive experience.
Performances: Aaditi Pohankar Steals the Show
The performances in Aashram Season 3 – Part 2 are one of its strongest aspects. Bobby Deol, as the cunning and ruthless Baba Nirala (Monty Singh), delivers one of his career-best performances. His unpredictability keeps the tension high. Chandan Roy Sanyal, as Bhopa Swami, adds to the drama, particularly in his confrontations with Bobby Deol and Aaditi Pohankar.
However, the true star of this season is Aaditi Pohankar. Her portrayal of Pammi is powerful, with intense dialogue delivery and expressive eyes filled with determination. She outshines even Bobby Deol in several crucial moments. Supporting actors like Tridha Choudhury, Sachin Shroff, and Esha Gupta also do justice to their roles.
Final Verdict: A Worthwhile Watch with Minor Flaws
Overall, Aashram Season 3 – Part 2 is an engaging watch with compelling performances and a thrilling storyline. While the long runtime could have been handled better, the narrative keeps viewers hooked.
⭐ Rating: 3.5/5
