Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s medical thriller ‘Human’ which has marked one year on Saturday, is indeed a web series that stands apart from the usual once that we see on our screens.
Taking a dig into the world of pharmaceutical companies, the Shefali Shah starrer series steps into a process of drug testing on humans while addressing the heart-wrenching reality of the corrupt, and deceitful world of pharma companies, hospitals, and politicians who are the main culprit of making it a torture for the helpless humans. Profoundly proved as an eye opener for the audience, the series has today completed one year of its release.
‘Human’ was an idea that shattered the audience with its brilliant story and its indeed a vision of the filmmaker, Vipul to bring such interesting and never seen before content to the audience.
Vipul said in a statement, “I think what was very clear in our heads was that we are going to go ahead and make a very honest show. We are not going to do any balancing act, we are not going to be politically correct, we are not going to leave anything unturned. So we are going to go all out, we are going to be honest and we were not going to be scared of the result.”
“I was very sure that if we told the story with full honesty and with full integrity, it’s a story which will 100 percent connect with people. Also, at a point in time in your career, after doing 15-16 films of various genres, I also wanted to make something which was completely different, something that I had never done but at the same time, something that was very very important for society. So, I think Human was a perfect mix of all of these ingredients which I think is the reason why people connected with it,” he added.
Ahead of this, Shefali who played Dr Gauri Nath, a stoic, soft-spoken, and reputed neurosurgeon in the web series also stepped into a very different role. The lead actress left everyone impressed with her amazing performance while garnering immense love from the audience and great reviews from critics.
While marking the one year of ‘Human’, Shefali shared, “Human completes a year and its still one of the most viewed shows and loved shows. I am just so glad I could be a part of the show which is talking about a really important thing and play a character which is always going to be the furthest away from me, and thats why its so much exciting. The show is going be there for prosperity for people to see forever. So it’s really something.”
The series also stars Kriti Kulhari, and is streaming on Disney+ Hotstar.
