The crime thriller revolves around the investigation of a series of murders in Rajasthan, with the critical aspect of these murders being the criminal use of public restrooms.

He’s so terrific in Dahaad as Murli Chandal, that I’m going to steal from his performance. It’s my pick for the best performance in Dahaad #YogiSingha pic.twitter.com/wS9p7fZTt5

The series has already generated a lot of buzz on social media, with netizens quick to react to its release. Many have praised the performances of the actors in the series, with some even calling it the best performance of their careers. For instance, one netizen was impressed with Yogi Singha's portrayal of Murli Chandal and declared it the best performance in the series. Another netizen praised Gulshan Devaiah's acting, claiming to have binge-watched the series solely for his performance.
However, not everyone has been as impressed with the series. Some critics have voiced their disappointment, with one netizen expressing displeasure with the director's work. The user claimed to have expected better from Reema Kagti, suggesting that she watch Vetrimaran's Visaranai for an example of how to make a social drama. The user gave "Dahaad" a low rating of 1.5 out of 5 stars.
I didn’t expect such poor work from Reema Kagti. I understand that a filmmaker can’t be apolitical. But the director shouldn’t get carried away. Dahaad is such a naive show Reema, please watch Vetrimaran’s Visaranai. That’s how you make a social drama 1.5 / 5 stars #Dahaad
