We often hear viewers (and even critics) lament the absence of original stories. Many cringe at remakes, labelling them lazy. But Kankhajura is anything but lazy. It is original, too, marrying the essence of Magpie with the soul of Goa and the heart of desi storytelling. This show proves that if done right, even a remake can be one of the best shows of the year.

‘Kankhajura’ is a Hindi adaptation of the Israeli show Magpie, but some changes have been made to it according to the Indian audience, which makes it more impressive. This story, set in the backdrop of Goa, attracts attention not only because of the location but also because of the complexity of its characters.

The Adaptation: This is where Kankhajura really deserves credit. SonyLIV’s adaptation of Israeli drama ‘Magpie’ doesn’t just copy-paste the original story. Directors Chandan Arora and writers Upendra Sidhaye have localized the narrative brilliantly, maintaining the psychological complexity of the original while adding Indian cultural nuances that make the family conflict more relatable.

While it may not qualify as a perfect 10/10 crime thriller, Kankhajura is a thoughtful, character-driven drama with enough intrigue and emotional depth to keep you invested throughout the series.
