Suzhal The Vortex Season 2 Web Series Review
The story picks up with Nandini (Aishwarya Rajesh) in prison following the events of Season 1, where she killed her abuser using Sub-Inspector Sakkarai’s (Kathir) service weapon. Sakkarai, now suspended, faces a new challenge when Chellappa (Lal), a respected lawyer and father figure to him, is found murdered in the coastal town of Kaalipattanam during the Ashtakaali festival. As Sakkarai investigates, the plot unravels layers of dark secrets involving trauma, child trafficking, and institutional corruption, while Nandini navigates her own struggles in prison alongside a group of compelling inmates.
The series retains the strengths of its predecessor—strong performances and a vivid cultural backdrop. Kathir brings a quiet intensity to Sakkarai, while Aishwarya Rajesh continues to shine as the complex Nandini. Newcomer Gouri Kishan delivers a haunting portrayal of Muthu, a young woman tied to the murder, and the ensemble cast, including Lal and Saravanan, adds depth to the narrative. The festival scenes burst with color and energy, complemented by Abraham Joseph’s stunning cinematography and Sam C.S.’s evocative score, which heighten the atmospheric tension.
However, Season 2 struggles to match the first season’s tightness and ingenuity. The pacing falters, particularly in the middle episodes, where the story feels overstretched and sluggish, testing viewers’ patience. While the initial setup is gripping, the mystery lacks the same convoluted brilliance that kept audiences guessing in Season 1. Some character arcs, including Nandini’s, feel underutilized, and logical inconsistencies—like the implausible movements of the prison inmates—undermine the realism. The final reveal, though impactful and tied to a significant social issue, doesn’t land with the same gut-wrenching surprise as before, partly because the buildup leans too heavily on exposition rather than subtle clues.
