Mind the Malhotras

It is totally unoriginal and tries to be a American sitcom show with a lot of scenes copied from so many of their shows. The show lacks a soul because characters don't have a personality of there own and they definitely don't do the things 99.999999% of the Indian families do, their personalities are generic to the American family sitcoms, nothing wrong with American family sitcoms but i have watched them all i don't need a rip off of that.

You can watch this show and all episodes with straight face.. Nothing funny at all.. The jokes and story has no flow ..also the mother-in law part is absolutely Boring and unnecessarily pushed into the story.. mini Mathur looked cute and tried hard to look natural on the screen and Cyrus just doesn't know how to act.

Season 1 of Mind the Malhotras is a very good watch, especially for audience in the 30+ age group. It is a light hearted, subtle humour that relies heavily on the performances of lead actors and overall characterisation. Now, a subtle humour is not everyone's cup of tea. Do not expect jokes that are loud or literally in your face. Each episode in Season 1 has a little bit of theme and how the various characters get about that theme. Definitely a good watch.

Season 2 however is completely messed up. It runs into the standard Season 2 greed where the makers try to create a larger canvas, more characters, bigger themes. But the basic essence of the show is lost in the process. A light hearted comedy is not the place to preach people about premarital sex, teenage pregnancy, gay marriages, lesbian relationships and love stories of senior citizens. I am not against these topics but Mind the Malhotras is way too subtle to take up such topics. Also, the first and last episodes of Season 2 are simply unwatchable. I hope the makers of the show do not make these mistakes in Season 3 (whenever that comes). In short, Season 2 is completely and totally avoidable.

Mind the Malhotras is a cutely done story about an upper middle class family and their daily whereabouts. The casting is wonderful as all actors have played their part well. Humor quotient found. Upside- Use of social message is included well. Nice thoughtful dialogues. Light, easy to process. Downside- Some scenes are a drag. Could have better story line. Fun to watch

I really like flow of story, It was smooth, didn't get too boring anywhere.

If you are looking for time pass story and with smile on your face, you can watch this.

But if you are looking for something more than a good story, it will disappoint you. It just makes you involve in the story, but here and there i felt it has some influence or similarity with Man with a plan series.
