Ved, described in promotional material as suffering from paranoia, doubts his own sanity as a skeptical cop questions him, and bizarre events and clues blur the line between reality and deception.[9](https://www.justwatch.com/in/tv-show/khoj-parchaiyon-ke-uss-paar) • [10](https://www.zee5.com/web-series/details/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar/0-6-4z5673981/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar-trailer/0-1-6z5673983) The final episode, \"Kahaani Uss Raat Ki\", reveals secrets connected to Meera's life and her disappearance, including that she was the one who took a child named Tia away.[11](https://www.justwatch.com/in/tv-show/khoj-parchaiyon-ke-uss-paar/season-1) • [1](https://www.zee5.com/global/web-series/details/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar/0-6-4z5673981)\n\n### Cast and characters\n\nSharib Hashmi plays Ved Khanna, the husband at the center of the search; [Anupriya Goenka](https://www.edgepedia.org/anupriya-goenka) plays Meera Khanna, the woman whose identity is in question; and Aamir Dalvi plays Amol Sathe, the police inspector who finds Meera and brings her back.[4](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35049431/) • [8](https://www.filmfare.com/reviews/web-series/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar-review-70497.amp) The supporting cast includes Himakshi Borah as \"Real Meera\", Ebadat Hussain as Tia, Kriti Garg as Aditi, Ravi Kant Sinha as Devraj, and Raviraa Bhardwaj as Dr. Nigam.[4](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35049431/)\n\n## Production and release\n\nThe series was produced by Juggernaut Productions for ZEE5, with Samar Khan listed as producer on IMDbPro and Aditya Pittie and Pragati Deshmukh credited by the streaming guide OTTAsia.[5](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ewVlsKQu_8) • [12](https://pro.imdb.com/title/tt35049431/) • [6](https://ottasia.com/title/tv/280566/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar?country=IN) Shanu Singh Rajput is credited as cinematographer.[12](https://pro.imdb.com/title/tt35049431/) The ZEE5 trailer was published on 16 December 2024 and had drawn about 19.7 million views on YouTube.[5](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ewVlsKQu_8)\n\nAll seven episodes were released together on 27 December 2024 in India and Australia.[1](https://www.zee5.com/global/web-series/details/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar/0-6-4z5673981) • [13](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35049431/releaseinfo/) The series streams on ZEE5 and VI movies and tv, free with ads on both platforms, and is also available through the Tata Play Binge bundle.[9](https://www.justwatch.com/in/tv-show/khoj-parchaiyon-ke-uss-paar) • [6](https://ottasia.com/title/tv/280566/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar?country=IN)\n\n## Reception\n\nThe IMDb weighted rating stood at 4.7/10 from about 330 votes, with an unweighted mean of 4.5; per-episode ratings ranged from 4.6 to 5.1.[7](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35049431/ratings/) Critics were cooler. Devesh Sharma of Filmfare gave it 2.5/5, calling the premise compelling but faulting the execution: he described the series as feeling like a stage play, with a single-location setting, dialogue-heavy sequences, and pacing problems from stretching a single-line plot over seven episodes, while crediting Sharib Hashmi, Anupriya Goenka, and Aamir Dalvi with good performances.[8](https://www.filmfare.com/reviews/web-series/khoj-parchaiyo-ke-uss-paar-review-70497.amp) A review by Ravi Sharma at Bollywood Helpline likewise found the twists predictable and the plot formulaic, but noted that the series addresses themes including women's rights, the consequences of domestic violence, and the lasting impact of childhood trauma.[14](https://www.bollywoodhelpline.com/reviews/web-series/khoj-parchaiyon-ke-uss-paar-review-a-mystery-that-tries-hard-but-misses-the-mark/2285) A Daily Pioneer review summarized the series as falling flat in the mystery and thriller genre despite commendable performances.[15](https://www.dailypioneer.com/uploads/2025/epaper/january/raipur-english-edition-2025-01-05.pdf)\n\n## Relationship to the 1989 film\n\nIMDb lists the series as a remake of *Khoj* (1989), a film starring [Rishi Kapoor](https://www.edgepedia.org/rishi-kapoor), Kimi Katkar, and [Naseeruddin Shah](https://www.edgepedia.org/naseeruddin-shah), and its trivia section identifies that film as the source.[4](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35049431/) The Bollywood Helpline review observes that viewers who know the 1989 film may anticipate where the story is going.[14](https://www.bollywoodhelpline.com/reviews/web-series/khoj-parchaiyon-ke-uss-paar-review-a-mystery-that-tries-hard-but-misses-the-mark/2285)\n\n## References\n\n1.
