There is no denying that Kohrra premiered with no expectations and became the most talked-about series in recent memory. The show is totally different from the series that we have been binge-watching for the past few months. We are all aware of how important acting and, of course, the main plot were to the series’ success, but its execution is what really set it apart.
The narrative is woven in such a way that, even if it leaves you with some questions, you can’t help but nod your head in agreement.

While it was successful in generating a great deal of excitement, some audience members would have been left perplexed and wondering, “What just happened?”
Well, we’re here to help. We will go into more detail about certain passages that crucial and significantly influenced the story’s development.
Let’s get started, shall we?
Mystery Behind Balbir’s Wife And Daughter Nimrat’s Mental Health
We were not able to figure out the cause of Balbir’s daughter Nimrat’s traumatization, played by Harleen Sethi—or where his wife was until many episodes passed by. We learn in the later episodes of the show that Nimrat saw her mother commit suicide and was a witness to it. According to what is known, the wife’s mental health struggles are so severe that she was taking medication. Eventually, she got so tired of it that she no longer wanted to take it.

Everything reaches such a point that she commits suicide. Nimrat, who witnessed her mother’s struggle, is from a background where she is aware of how her father is a “toxic male” who wants his family to follow his lead at all costs. This is demonstrated by a somewhat snarky exchange in which she claims that her father taught her how to be a nice daughter and wife but never supported her dreams of pursuing her education.
2. Nimrat’s Decision To Leave The Child
It is painful to witness Nimrat pleading to be with her loved one. Despite her unwavering devotion for her son, she says something unusual. She describes how much her son means to her despite the fact that she never wanted to become a parent in the first place. So she moves on with the man she loves and leaves the child with her estranged spouse.

3. The Portrayal Of Drug Abuse
The portrayal of drug usage in Punjab accounts for a sizable portion of what is heard and reported. From depicting a man going insane after not receiving his chitta dose to vendors hawking the drug. They have made an effort to illustrate the drug abuse cycle and how pervasive it is among the state’s population.

4. The Truck Driver’s Fear
This ends up being one of the most tragic yet realistic parts. The truck driver who ran over Liam was so terrified that he was going to get arrested for murder. He attempted to murder the person who was in the truck with him, thinking that it may result in consequences. The truck driver ends up in jail and confesses everything after being tortured.
5. The Music’s Impact
The music of the programme is one of its most underappreciated features. From the the BGM to Wazir Patar’s two tracks. They are well positioned. The songs are surprising and give much-needed edge and thrill, with one being played when Balbir dances and another at the closing scene.

6. The Twisted Tale About Liam’s Death
Paul visits Veera (Aanand Priya) following an altercation him and Liam have with Saakar (Saurav Khurana) at the bar. Veera gives him all the details of her ex before he drops her off at her residence. He receives a call from Liam enquiring about his location as he is saying goodbye to her. When the two eventually cross paths again in the fields, Liam is dismayed to learn that Paul is still hesitant to come out of the closet. They begin making out, but Liam feels duped. Liam pushes Paul away and slits his throat during their altercation. Later, after realizing his grave error, he calls his mother to confess.
He is then hit by a truck and dies on the spot.

7. Steve’s Realisation About Son’s Truth
After his son’s death, Steve AKA Satvinder learned that he was gay when Liam’s mother revealed to him that he had been ‘blind’ the entire time. In the final scenes of the programme, we see him sobbing bitterly while holding his son Paul’s shervani, which he was due to wear to the wedding. It’s symbolic of how he regretted not accepting his son’s choices.

8. Manna’s Ill-Treatment Towards Happy
Steve Dhillon’s younger brother, Manna resides in India. Happy, his son who has a business, appears to be continuously resentful of everything around him. Happy comes out as a spoiled brat, yet Manna has worked hard to become a successful businessman like his brother. He never realised that his subtle insults had a lasting effect on Happy, who grew up thinking that his first cousin Paul was more intelligent than he was. Despite the fact that Paul was always wonderful to Happy, Manna’s relentless praise of him caused Paul to harbour a deep-seated insecurity and actual loathing.
9. Garundi’s Brother’s Awareness About Wife’s Affair
Garundi’s brother is well aware that his wife has been having an affair with him for a long time. But it appears that he made the decision to never confront Garundi or take any action. He did not want to jeopardise his standing in society, and he also wanted to keep the family intact.
