Duranga was released on August 19 and received mediocre reviews. News18’s review of the show read: “Duranga, like the Flower of Evil, is packed with twists and turns. For someone who hasn’t watched the show, the ZEE5 series offers something new to the table. The series’ biggest advantage is its length. Unlike the original, which takes time to brew and spends over one hour per episode, Duranga cuts to the chase and limits each episode’s length to 30 mins or so. However, as an on-screen couple, Devaiah and Dhami lack chemistry."
