Movie Review : Kaakee Circus ( webseries)

Image
Kaakee Circus, revolves around a bunch of cops in  housing prisoners in a jail, where a hundi, dedicated for charity money collected for a deity, is suddenly found stolen, despite being protected by a grillled cage and a lock, that too right under the presence is so many cops. When one of the cops ( Subash Selvam) tries to follow up some clues leading  to a suspect, he is deterred in his efforts by his superior (Munishkanth), who firmly believes in goodness of people and  that prisoners can change if they have exposure to reading good books ( namely those written by himself, all housed in the prison library). Do the cops manage to catch the thief?  The web series has a solid cast which works in its favour.
