Famed Bollywood actress, Madhur Dixit plays the central character of Anamika in
the Netflix show The Fame Game. Like Dixit, Anamika is a Bollywood star. Except
in reel life, the actress goes missing one day after an award function. Sri Rao,
Shreya Bhattacharya, Akshat Ghildial, Nisha Mehta, and Amisha Vyas are also part
of the show in pivotal roles. But does the show keep the suspense alive
throughout the eight episodes of 45-50 minutes each? Is streaming the show worth
your time? Let’s find out. 


IT’S A SLOW BURN MYSTERY 

Director Bejoy Nambiar and Karishma Kohli unpeel the layers of Anamika slowly.
They take viewers back and forth in Anamika’s life. As Shobha (Rajashri
Deshpande), the police officer, starts investigating Anamika’s case, we also get
to see her life behind the camera.

She is surrounded by sharks: her mother and her husband. Her relationship with
her children is rocky at best but powers through her life because it’s her job
to smile. Her husband, played by Sanjay Kapoor, uses her funds without her
knowledge. On the other hand, her mother remains to be a domineering person in
her life ever since childhood. Avi, her son, finds her distant and insensitive,
while daughter Amara is insecure about living in Anamika’s shadow. The Fame Game

with Manish (Manav Kal).
