Hecho en el cielo

I love Zoya's work. It's a different concept that people aren't used to in India. People want violence and abusive language for selling. This is a very unique concept with good characters and the direction of scenes and wedding scenes are amazing. Story is engaging and you should give it a shot.

I can't believe India has finally created a show which addresses so many social issues...Where do I start... Dowry issue, article 377, extramarital affair from all perspectives, sexual assault and many more superstitions... Wow... Just wow... Hats off to the creatures for addressing all these things... The trailer made it seem like a vain series about high class wedding... But I am impressed... We need to make more serials like this...

S1: 8/10

• Too depressing

S2: 6/10

• Every episode feels like a chapter being studied out of a textbook (Ch.1: colorism, Ch.2: domestic abuse, etc.). It becomes tiresome and predictable.

• The depiction of Karan's drug addiction was so cliche, I felt very bored watching him go to a club, gamble, etc. We didn't need 4 -5 sequences of him getting high.

• Jazz and Kabir's relationship seriously lacked chemistry. Super boring.

• The Jauhari family plot line was very poorly executed. Felt very choppy. None of the characters and their belief systems were believable, and the dialogues felt like a fever dream.

• I am losing track of Karan and Meher's many romances and partners, I felt my head spinning trying to remember whom they met where and when.

• Faiza was a very interesting character but her constantly bringing up the divorce didn't build tension like it should have.

• The addition of Gauri to the show could've been more interesting.

• Wanted more of the Khanna family drama and more of Tara's divorce.

• Overall theme of the show felt very preachy, which would've been fine if done better.

• I don't feel invested in any of the sad storylines, like Karan's mom, Jazz's brother, Adil's dad's death, etc. Not enough emotional connection built.

• Kabir's character is very irritating, and his storyline was just not necessary (gf breakup, career struggle, etc)

• I don't get the hype around Mona Singh's acting as Bulbul Jauhari. She was introduced as a change maker at the office, but she never really estaished herself as a powerful part of the team or a force to be reckoned with. She was brought in with cheery music in the background a jump in her step but I never witnessed her actual cheery personality.

• I liked how Tara became more morally ambiguous as she tried to make weddings happen for the benefit of their company even at the cost of the bride.

• I liked the wedding plot of episode 3, could've made it more dangerous though. Episodes 4 and 5 were boring.

• I didn't get to see much of the tiny luxurious details of the lives of the rich when it comes to wedding planning.

• A lot of the actual wedding planning parts had a lot of shouting, complaining and hassle and that was it.

• Raghav doesn't feel like an interesting rebound for Tara. Too tame, doesn't challenge her in a way that's interesting on the screen (other than his demure personality contrasting her coldness).

• Tara's scenes with the purse, cab, helping Adil's mom and her niece, going to the art exhibition, etc felt nice but not cohesive.

• Pallavi's brother's hesitations weren't ever resolved?

I recently completed watching this Indian web series for the second timer. It offers something entirely new and out of the box, a rare gem in the vast sea of shows and movies. Upon my initial viewing, I was in awe, taken aback by its underrated brilliance. However, the magic didn't quite resonate as strongly during the second watch. Nevertheless, I'm content enough to rate it a 9 and share this review.

Initially, I was hesitant to continue after the first two episodes, as it seemed excessively female-centric, focusing heavily on women empowerment and what felt like slightly overrated feminism. Yet, my curiosity persisted, and I was delighted to find that the show eventually balanced its purpose by exploring men's issues and challenges as well. It became a fascinating exploration of varied themes, offering a fresh and creative perspective that captivated my interest.

The performances were a mixed bag, with Kalki Koechlin delivering a lackluster portrayal, contrasting with the brilliance of Shashank, Shivan Raghuvanshi, Vijay Raaz, and Jim Sarbh. Sobhita's portrayal was compelling. I loved its unique approach and I'd recommend everyone to watch Zoya's yet another cinematiic brilliance!

Who said life is a straight path, dont we keep going in circles between past and future and see deeper meanings of truth. The day i saw the trailer when i went to watch Gully Boy, i knew, something good is arriving on 8th of march. Well watch it and see for yourself that when real artists are given their due artistic freedom they come up with realities that we often consciously refuse to see. From Karan and Tara, the two lead characters and their insecurities, we are taken to a whole bunch of characters, some flawed, some troublesome and others quite innocent like Jazz. All in all there is Joya & Reema vibe to the whole series. Like ZNMD and Dil Dhadkne Do, Zoya utilises vocalising the inner thoughts of a "photographer" this time, who unlike others is aware of the farceness of the world he is living in. Only love for this beautiful series.
