X Ray Nazar Wala Hero Review: 2/5 Stars for Story TV
Story TV's microdrama pairs Sagar Parekh with a see-the-future twist, but our review finds the fantasy falls flat at 2/5 stars.
Story TV’s new microdrama X Ray Nazar Wala Hero has arrived with a supernatural hook, but it leaves the screen with only 2 out of 5 stars.
What the series sets up
Chirag is a genuine, hard-working common man whose life changes when he gains an unexpected power in his eyes: the ability to see what is coming. He does not misuse it. Instead, after saving Roohi, he becomes her protector, and she chooses him over a business tycoon. The protector bond then turns into love on both sides, which brings secrets, intrigue and romantic complications.
Where the story loses steam
The review notes that what happens next may not be predictable, but it is not interesting enough to pull viewers forward. The fantasy element works more like a convenient plot device than an engaging reason to keep watching.
IWMBuzz’s editorial review sums up the series as a “familiar fantasy drama with little freshness.”
Cast effort cannot fix weak scripting
Sagar Parekh, known to TV audiences for his role in the hit show Anupamaa, delivers his best as Chirag. The review notes Eshaanya Mmaheshwari’s striking screen presence and the way she brings Roohi’s feelings across. The problem is the story and screenplay around them, which undercuts the whole experience.
- Watch for: the two lead performances.
- Do not expect: a fresh twist or sharp narrative.
- The real issue: short-format drama needs stronger emotional stakes than this delivers.
Why microdrama fans should pay attention
Short-format shows run on momentum. When every scene is brief, a twist has to land fast or the viewer simply moves on. This series is a reminder that a known face and a fantasy gimmick are not enough; the script needs to make the next episode feel urgent. For makers, the review’s takeaway is clear: invest in sharper writing rather than repeating a familiar template.
What the 2-star rating means
Editorial ratings in this space reward pace, premise and payoff in equal measure. A 2-star score suggests the premise is clear enough but the payoff is missing. For viewers who follow Sagar Parekh from Anupamaa, that is the frustrating part: an actor known for holding the screen is left with a screenplay that does not match his effort.
If you are deciding whether to press play, do it for Sagar Parekh and Eshaanya Mmaheshwari—not for a tightly plotted fantasy.
