Love Under Construction

When Vinod(Neeraj Madhav) unexpectedly loses his Dubai based job, his plans of building a house in Kerala run into rough weather. To make matters worse, Vinod's plans of marrying his girlfriend Gouri(Gouri Kishan) is rejected by the parents at both ends, and the option of a registered marriage isn't as easy as Vinod & his girlfriend had envisaged. How Vinod deals with both these challenges forms the crux of the story. This is a well directed web series by Vishnu Raghav and the performances of all actors including the lead pair is very good, with Aju Varghese as Pappettan leading the supporting cast.

The 6 episodes in this Web series are of 30 minute duration and the total runtime comes to around 180 minutes, the same as a 3 hour movie.

Verdict: "Love under construction" is an enjoyable Web series with an unexpected twist in the end. Definitely recommended (8/10 stars).

Love Under Construction is a light-hearted, breezy show that is easy to watch and doesn't demand much from the viewer. It neither bores you completely nor does it fully captivate you. The problems the characters face are real, relatable, and stem from everyday situations-but at the same time, they don't feel entirely unsolvable.

The lead pair, Neeraj and Gouri, bring a certain freshness to the screen, making their dynamic enjoyable to watch. The supporting actors, especially those playing the parents, play a notable role, and Aju Varghese brings humor and warmth to the story. The first episode is engaging, but after that, the quality dips noticeably.

One of the biggest issues I have with the show is its dialogues-they don't always match the personalities of the characters saying them. The same person who sounded mature and sensible in the beginning suddenly starts speaking in an immature and unrealistic way later on. Some situations feel forced, and the show doesn't do a great job of justifying why the characters had no other choice in those moments.

Despite its flaws, it's still a simple and comforting watch. If this were a movie, it would probably be a flop. But as a short, six-episode series, it works well enough for a casual weekend binge. Don't overthink it, don't expect too much, and you might just enjoy it.

Love under construction tells the story of vinod(neeraj madhav), an expatriate in Dubai. He is constructing a house in Kerala for his parents. He falls in love with a girl gouri(gouri kishan). Vinod's happy go lucky life changes when he is fired from his job. Gouri advises him to migrate to Canada together. Vinod and gouri return to Kerala. Rest of the show is how vinod completes his house construction and marry gouri.

The show is a very easy watch. There is no dull moments at all. Neeraj madhav gave a cool performance as vinod. Another best performance was aju varghese as pappan. His track was also good. It contains six episodes each being 30 minutes short. Sometimes you feel it could have been a movie itself instead of web series.

This is a pretty watchable series - but not all that enjoyable and if you miss it all together - you won't regret much at all !

This could have been made atleast one episode shorter - also some of the scripts could have been tweaked - but as it stands it is still a watchable series ( not really binge worthy, but good enough for a lazy watch in the afternoon).

You might skip through many scenes ( especially in the middle part - where the editor/director really have not done a good job - with lot of fluff and repetition) - but the climax being a realistic and rooted one did some cover up to this.

Final verdict - watch if bored - you are missing anything if you choose to give this a miss as well.

If you are into Feel Good Romantic Dramas this one might be for you. I liked the idea of parallel construction of own house and love life and how both are important to protagonist amid all the crisis he face. No unnecessary melodramas and almost realistic story telling made this crisp series a good watch. Gouri Kishan, Neeraj Madhav Played their lead part well but Aju Varghese as Pappan is show stealer. Anand Manmadhan & Ann Saleem were notable in the supporting role. You will start watching for Neeraj's love story but end up liking Aju's love story More.
