Upside Brown

It's rare to find a show about the Indian-American experience that's actually funny and relatable. Huge props to the writers, seriously; this series handles sensitive topics in a manner that's lighthearted and broadens your perspective at the same time. They casted really well and every character just makes sense in each scene. I personally loved Bunty, and the only reason this isn't a 10/10 is because there wasn't enough Bunty. GIVE BUNTY THE LOVE HE DESERVES AND GIVE HIM MORE SCREEN TIME IN SEASON 2! In the end, Upside Brown gives everyone something to laugh at, relate to, and reflect on regardless of their age/generation.

I love the different roles and the cultural situations.

Watch for the humor and the American/ Indian cultures as they mix. This is a must watch show(s).

Pay attention to the comics as they portray Indian culture and American growing up. Individual characters are hilarious this show displays how different cultures can be . Watch for the details in the acting and observations of several blends of cultures . The creators are headed for the silver screen - these folks have their hart and souls vested together! I always enjoy the young girl trying to escape from matrimonial commitments!

Love these guys.

I recently watched Upside Brown, a sitcom featuring a predominantly South Asian cast, and I have to say, it left a lasting impression. The show mixes humor with relatable everyday situations, giving me major The Office vibes. The mockumentary-style camera work was spot on, making the awkward, funny moments feel more authentic and spontaneous. What really stood out were the characters. Each one was well-developed, with unique personalities and backstories that added depth to the show. I loved it so much that I showed it to many of my friends, and they had a great time watching it too. Highly recommended for anyone who's looking for a character-driven comedy.

*Upside Brown* is an Amazon series produced and directed by Yash Hatkar and Rahul Dhiman. This nine-episode show delves into the cultural and generational conflicts within the Tyagi family, capturing the struggles faced by both first- and second-generation Indians. The patriarch, Amol, attempts to control his children and wife, unaware of the shifting dynamics that challenge his traditional views.

The series explores the life of Amol's daughter, Shweta, as she resists her father's efforts to marry her off, and his son, a depressed aspiring chef who fails to meet his father's expectations. The narrative also touches on the wife's extramarital affair and the arrival of Amol's childhood friend, whose hidden troubles further complicate the family dynamics.

With its engaging plot and strong performances, *Upside Brown* masterfully highlights the complexities of identity, tradition, and change within a modern Indian family. The series leaves viewers eagerly awaiting a second season to see how these intricate issues will continue to unfold.

I would rate it 4.7/5.0, with outstanding performances by Rajesh Hatkar, Rahul Dhiman, and Rabbani. Accolades to young directors Yash Hatkar and Rahul Dhiman for skillfully handling these complex social issues.

Funny moments and certain portions touch your heart. Story is good and keeps you engaged.

Episodes are short and sweet and not dragged on.

Enjoyed the music and both the songs are worth listening to over an over again.

Show is really enjoyed by both parents and ther adult kids.

Coloring and sound is down well. I suggest to watch with subtitles turned on as there is some Hindi spoken here and there.

Crypto song is catchy and done well.

Can't wait for Season 2 to see what happens to all those characters and what journey they go on.

Congratulations to the young first time filmmakers.

The entire team looks like was having fun and good luck to the entire team.
