Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo

It's incredible to see how a director is able to sell outright negative characters and make us care about them. Makes you truly empathize with them. That is both incredible and problematic.

The cliff hangers are very real. Forces you to binge watch. Dimple has definitely given a performance of a lifetime. It's incredible how the director has been able to pull out the potential of such an incredible actor. She rocks the show. Powerful performance by most of the star cast. Great direction. Writing is Shakespearean.

Just what is disturbing is that the show is glorifying drugs and violence.

Looking forward to season 2.

Excepting Radhika Madan (Shanta), every actor played their role perfectly. She didnt have a clear speech nor any changing expression on her face. Was struggling to understand what she was saying the whole time unlike the other actors who had a clearer delivery. Unsure if it was a choice for the character ?? Clearly not expected

Basic story line about the selection of heir from a bunch of choices but with good twists and plot. Lot of blood and gore. All the Makeup , clothing choices, sets were done really well. Wishing for a season 2 soon. Dimple Kapadia is an all time favorite 😍 who can make this a huge success.

All of the performers performed well in their parts. I really like Naseeruddin Sir's performance. He gives his character so much depth. His presence on the show makes a significant effect. The idea is carefully thought out and the narrative is quite engaging. Every twist and curve is thoroughly thought out. The struggle of a young woman to deal with a bully mother-in-law has been realistically represented. It doesn't get much better than this. In my view, the show is a must-see. Furthermore, I believe it is addicting. Yes, you can get hooked to this one fantastic television show. You may certainly watch it with your family to pass the time.

Anwar Says: Matriarchy presented in a completely new avatar and a deadly drug cartel is being run by the all women in the family. The egos of men, when they enter, are killed by showing them that the show can be run by women. Homi Adajania has been able to create the atmosphere and the show is neither too paced nor too slow.

Ruthless badass Savitri's character was written keeping only Dimple Kapadia in mind. She says so much with her eyes and stillness that many can't even with loads of dialogues. Second to watch is nuances of Isha Talwar which she performed with conviction. Radhika Madan and Angira Dhar also played their twisted role well. Deepak Dobriyal as monk never impresses. Nasiruddin Shah seems to be out of even pocket money, so that he accepts such insignificant roles.

But what doesn't work for the series is predictability. You smell every turn much before and that makes the story haywire. Dialect used are also not well researched and rehearsed. Many a sequence are not connected and are unanswered. Cliffhanger confirm the second season, hope Homi would overcome the shortcomings.

Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo definitely falls under the category of those very few unique storylines that keeps one glued to the plot, thats enamoured with twists and turns, making one curious enough to know how the tale winds up eventually - to make one conclude that the execution of the well-crafted narration gives rise to expectations that a lot more is about to come. Voila! The aspects of storytelling and thrill ride of what lies ahead has hit a mark. Granted the pace of the plot mellows down a bit but afterall, it helps build the character's representation with par to the story in a subtle manner, that could not go unnoticed! It has been quite an impressive avenue of entertainment in its own sphere. Kudos to everyone involved in manifesting it !
