  • Summary

  • From the mind of Arati Kadav, enter the world of Cargo, an Audible Original workplace comedy where the end of your life is just another workday for them. In a world where ancient Rakshasha prepare humans for reincarnation in spaceships, the life of Prahastha, a rigid transition officer who has lived alone in Space for decades is disrupted by the sudden arrival of Yuvishka, an idealistic and energetic new assistant. As Prahastha and Yuvishka clash in their dealings with the quirky and strange humans, they realize that their dead “Cargo” might still have something to teach them about what it means to live.

    Cargo: The End is Just the Beginning is based on the motion picture Cargo on Netflix written by Arati Kadav.

Cargo - Space fiction brought to life. Bold attempt

This is an adaption of the Netflix Movie Cargo (from what I understand). The movie was bold but boring. The show is better than the movie. While it starts slow, it is brought to life (contrary to the theme 😇) with the wonderful voice of Jyotica Sarkar Malik. A voice to die for especially if she could be your transition specialist to the next phase after life :). Kudos for the bold attempt. A crisper editing can make the show better.

Little slow

The storyline and concept are little weird. The script could have been made more exciting and fast paced.
