A mother embarks on a relentless nine-year search for her newborn daughter, abducted from a hospital, refusing to give up even as she uncovers painful truths and unexpected leads.
Rating: 2.0/5 · Indian Express · Negative ✗
Shaque: Trust No One reminds me very much of your standard undemanding Harlan Coben shows: the actors are all competent, and there are some random moments of suspense, but it all feels forced, and the outcome stays determinedly mid. So mid, in fact, that I kept falling out of it.

Jennifer Winget ultimately outshines Parineeti Chopra, not because Chopra doesn't work in the role, but because Winget gets the kind of layered material that allows her to make a stronger impression.
Rating: 2.5/5 · Indiatvnews · Mixed ~
However, too many subplots, a convenient screenplay, some easily predictable twists and uneven pacing weaken the series' overall grip. Even the stunning location of Shimla fails to create the kind of atmosphere one expects from a mystery series.
Rating: 3.0/5 · Internationalnewsandviews · Positive ✓
The screenplay sometimes adds more twists than the story needs, but its central mystery remains strong enough to keep the binge alive.
Rating: 3.5/5 · Filmfare · Positive ✓
One wishes that Shaque: Trust No One should have been more tighter and compact. However, its emotional core, committed performances and atmospheric setting give it enough weight to keep you invested.
