Another indian show showing how useless indian polices are. All these indian crime shows in Netflix and Amazon portrays how incompetent are indian polices. Shraddhananda is the culprit for this heinous crime there is no doubt. Even his statement with the interviewers has many plotholes and questionable arguments. Every other witness statements, including the maids, contradicts with his version of the story. And of course with some evidences like the wooden box. This criminal hindu priest's lawyer seems to be another hindu sympathizer and his baseless logical arguments made no sense. Shakereh Khaleeli made some unfortunate decisions in her life and she paid a hefty price for that in life and after death. Her daughter made many silly mistakes as well after suspecting her mother was missing, which was not highlighted in this series. How can she wait 3 years with her mother missing? I agree with other commenters that there are no real twists in the story and could have been made in under 1 hour video. Why make it slow and lengthy with repetitive info?

By the documentary, 1st It is right that he & other servants buried dead female. Female was dead by overdose of sleeping pills by own. She used to drink. So, it is possible that dead by own hand like accidental suicide. 2nd Biggest mistake of Mr. Murli that he hide death of her own wife. He must admitted or informed that muslim inspector. Result may be different. 3rd Mr. Murli convicted by hide death of her wife. Not murdered. & Indian judgement? 4th Whole siya muslim family proved lie in front of camera over property. They admitted on camera. So, them must be also jail for life in imprisonment. 5th Only one daughter fighting for her mother. Other three daughters & 1st husband hates victim. So, it proves that 1st muslim family is disrespectful & disgrace for society. 6th 1st marriage was completely failure. 2nd marriage was successful. That's why she married second time. She drink, wear modern cloth, cigar, etc. Which is not allow in siya muslim. So, she was modern woman & follow in humanity. Muslim family just lie for it. 7th 1st muslim family tortured her. Even by her own mother. So, they inspired her for suicide. 8th Police is proved culprits. They have no evidences. They have not proper investigation. They tortured victim. So, court must show it base less investigation by siya muslim inspector. They showed religion angel. 9th It is not proved that Mr. Murli was culprit or innocent. So, he must be free. & Her family must sentenced by court for tortured her. For that document is available. Media is idiots bcaz they performed judge role. Rest in peace, madam. Your 1st family don't understand u. & U was accidentally death by them. The idiot 2nd husband framed of your murder.

Credit goes to the trailer maker who convinced me to watch this with his trailer design but the final product is a disappointment. First of all, the parallelization of the stories doesn't blend in as it seems they had no clue how to tell the story. Same thing repeated again and again. The talkers talking about the same thing doesn't giving any new details. Nothing new for the next episodes. After the first 15 minutes of the opening episode the documentary lost it's engagement. Unnecessary back stories, to relate with the characters they have tried to establish back stories, which was filled with unnecessary details that failed to maintain the connection with the characters. In short, if you want to know about the case you can do some digging on youtube no need to waste your time watching this.

"Dancing On The Grave" is a docuseries that re-examines the sensational case of Shakereh Khaleeli, who went missing in 1991 and was later discovered buried alive in a wooden casket at her home in Bangalore, India, with her second husband as the prime suspect. The docuseries about Shakereh's death is good, but it could have been better. It focuses too much on recreating scenes and imagining things, instead of talking about important things like religion and class differences. The show is curious about the details, but it loses focus and doesn't trust the audience. It needed more grace and reserve when dealing with such a haunting subject. Overall, it's still a good true-crime show for fans, but it could have been even better if it had focused more on important issues and trusted the audience more.

True story picturised well but old footages ,as per that time,are not upto today's standards. Eventhen worth watching. However the *MMM* seems to have been falsely implicated as there are no eyewitness nor the evidence picturised evidences are as per today's time. Moreover he was already behind the bars for more than 30 years now so needs review or mercy. One can watch and enlighten oneself as far as human psyche is concerned. Well tried as brought the real characters and their verbatim presentation . Once again worth watching and analysing. Common man ,super woman , different beliefs n societies ...

There are incidents ...no matter how unrelated to your life and yet they leave an impact. They leave you with more questions than answers....more perplexed than resolve ; sense ceases to prevail only to haunt your mind and soul. This documentary just did that and more ! But what's remarkable is the presentation which was absolutely fair. The director allowed you to step in everyone's shoe and build your own perspective. No biases , it simply unfolds the truth with heavy emotions ! The ease and the way of gracefully presenting the story is dignified with zero sensationalism. But what moveD me most was the ONLY VOICE RECORDING PLAYED at the end of the series. It says it all .....it was like her life's end being sung by herself. As for the perpetrator ......8 judges gave their verdict and even the audience will say the same MUST WATCH Salute to the team for such a spectacular effort.
