    Funny fight of the mother inlwas

    Keeping up with the kandasamys is a comedy drama of neighbor kids getting married and the mothers are fighting over the preparing of the wedding. The parents are both not happy when their children fall in love with each other and go to extremes trying to break the couple up, but eventually the get married. Keeping up with the kandasanys is a 2017 South African Indian comedy film directed by jayan moodley , and was the first south african Indian film to be screened widely in theaters. The setting is beautiful and quality of the setting top notch. Keeping up with the kardashians has the likes of Jailoshini Naidoo.

    "Keeping Up with the Kandasamys: A Heartwarming and Hilarious Comedy About Family, Friendship, and Love"

    "Keeping Up with the Kandasamys" is a 2017 South African comedy film directed by Jayan Moodley. The movie tells the story of two matriarchal rivals of neighboring families, whose young adult children become romantically involved. The movie explores the challenges of navigating family, friendship, and love in a close-knit Indian community in South Africa.

    The movie is a heartwarming and hilarious comedy that celebrates the importance of family, friendship, and love. The pace of the movie is slow, but it gives the plot and the audience enough time to fully realize the implications of the eventual revelations. The cinematography is stunning, and the performances by the cast are exceptional. Jailoshini Naidoo delivers a nuanced and complex performance that captures the character's inner turmoil and transformation.

    Overall, "Keeping Up with the Kandasamys" is a must-see film that will leave you moved and inspired. It is a masterpiece that deserves to be seen and appreciated by all. V vvvvfffff.
