Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Aug 20
3.5/5
For the most part, The Hunt stays gripping, never taking its eyes off the ball for too long, while giving us the impression of hewing close to what happened, before, after and on the day of the assassination. Go to Full Review Nandini Ramnath Scroll.in Aug 20
There are just about enough details of the larger political backdrop to satisfy the mildly curious viewer. The events explored over seven episodes remain sensitive, with unverified theories about the assassination still floating around. Go to Full Review Rahul Desai The Hollywood Reporter India Aug 1
