Permanent Roommates

After a while I have come across such a good Hindi show that imbibes humor, sarcasm and best of situational comedy. Best show on Indian TV after sarabhai vs sarabhai.. May be even better than that. The writing is so simple yet beautiful. The actors can act just apt and that is a perfect level... I love the character Mikesh. Do goody but extremely goofy.. And his GF's realism is so good for them.. And twists (which aren't really there) and kinks of the show are wonderful.

I would like to commend the TVF team for such a wonderful show.. As it is their other work like TMO and Rowdies have ROFL me but this show is a class apart which is an amalgam of humor, sensitivity, love wala romance and most of all STORY

A wonderfully written, directed and acted romantic comedy that is truly unique and pleases immensely on many fronts and with many layers. It excellently blends emotion and humor to give an intriguing and fun insight into today's modern relationships. It definitely transcends the current Indian cinematic blunders in this genre.

I look forward to their upcoming productions and I am confident the Team will grow from strength to strength in times to come. They deserve financial and distribution support to enter the big screen or perhaps even next-gen television. The world needs more visionaries like these. I am proud to see that Indian youth creators are taking the path less traveled and are venturing into exciting territory. Truly, content is king!

Sumit Vyas. One of the most under rated actors currently. Brilliant work by him. Executes his comic timing perfectly!

Story is also engaging and being a TVF series it is bound to be gold!

You will definetly like this series if you liked Little Things!

This series is a happy break from the clichéd stuff. It depicts the modern society, broad-minded and reasonable people, within a simple story line. Basically, its easier to relate to this with the things happening around you. This show will make you think, but first, it will make you laugh. There isn't a dull moment. Moreover, its a punch packed in five short videos. What makes it better is awesome acting by each and everyone. Also, its easily available on YouTube. So here I have what I have been waiting for - Indian actors, Hindi language (has English subs too), a short and fast-paced series, and I ain't disappointed at all!!! I would totally recommend it. And I will be eagerly waiting for another series by this super team.

Two seasons and two different reasons to watch this cocktail of masterpiece and absurdity.

Why a Masterpiece..!

Firstly because its an unprecedented effort to bring a quality web series to the Indian youths who were bored, exhausted and irritated with clichés of ekta kapoor and MTV stuffs. The Tvf have some of the rare and exceptional original-creatives such as Arunabh Kumar,Biswapati Sarkar,Nidhi Bisht and Sumeet Vyas,thus the creative mix brought by them and their actors are often of an assured quality.The act portrayed by Nidhi Singh as Tanya and Sumeet Vyas as Mikesh is both new and in melody with each other..in short brilliant.The character of lleo and purshottam brings an off charts humor and originality to the show. The twists,pause,camera angle and subtle humour are among the best we have seen till date in India.So till here you guys rock..

but...

When it gets Absurd..?

Well somewhere around the 2nd episode of Season 2..the moment Darshan Jariwala and Manu Rishi Chadha comes to the main plot,their presence in the screen is a waste.The similarity of the plot with 'Bang Baaja Baraat' and the question who inspired whom with commonality of Sumeet vyas is confusing to the viewers.Though 'the dinner'(episode 4) was a good plot pause but episode 5 was irrelevant to the continuity and brings a lot which could be avoided to bring the awesomeness of Asrani ji's character at last.The adequate pace in which Mikesh's character developed in season 1 is not followed in season 2,which is disappointing. Season 1 of PR was a balanced symphony of creativity,story flow, risk taking and new character introductions, which gets a bit clumsy in season 2.

In the End..

Permanent Roommates is one of the best and most sincere efforts brought by few of the finest young talents in India today..A must watch for the desi youths..You will find a lot to bond in here and will adore the way protagonists explore their life ahead..
