Breathe is a Hindi-language thriller series from Amazon Prime Video. The show premiered on January 26, 2018, and has a total of eight episodes. The series follows the story of Danny Mascarenhas (played by R. Madhavan), a football coach, whose son Josh is terminally ill and in dire need of a lung transplant. Danny is desperate to save his son and turns to desperate measures to do so. The series has a dual timeline, with the present-day storyline following Danny's activities to ensure his son's survival, while the past storyline is centered on Kabir Sawant (played by Amit Sadh), a senior Mumbai police officer. Kabir is investigating a series of murders that have been committed by an unknown killer who suffocates his victims. As the investigation progresses, Kabir becomes increasingly convinced that the murders have been committed by the same person. As the title suggests, Breathe is centered around breath and the importance of it in almost all aspects of life. The series explores various themes such as death, loss, and redemption, but the central theme is how far a father is willing to go to save his son. Danny's journey to save his son is not an easy one, and he seeks the help of his friend and doctor Dr. Arjun Reddy (played by Shriswara). Together, they devise a plan to take advantage of the organ donation system to ensure that Josh gets a lung transplant. However, things quickly spiral out of control, and Danny finds himself in a race against time to save Josh's life before it's too late. As the story unfolds, viewers are taken on a rollercoaster of emotions, with the tension and suspense building up with each passing episode. The series is filled with unexpected twists and turns that keep viewers guessing until the very end. The performances by the actors are excellent, with R. Madhavan's portrayal of Danny being the highlight of the series. He effectively portrays the desperation and anguish of a father who will do anything to save his child. Amit Sadh's portrayal of Kabir is commendable, as he embodies the frustrations and determination of a cop trying to catch a killer. The show's direction, cinematography, and editing are top-notch, with the action scenes being particularly impressive. The sound design and background scores are also noteworthy, adding to the overall feel of the show. Breathe is not just a thriller, but it also touches upon social issues such as healthcare and the organ donation system. The series sheds light on the harsh realities faced by people who need organ transplants and the pressure they face when trying to navigate a flawed system. Overall, Breathe is an edge-of-the-seat thriller that leaves viewers wanting more. It is a well-crafted series that has a good balance between storytelling and action, and the cliffhanger ending sets the stage for what promises to be an exciting second season.
