Waack Girls

So great and different from all the nonsensical content coming out. What an enjoyable and refreshing watch! Loved it and cannot wait for season 2!

The cinematography, direction and dancing were incredible. The dancers are not just technically skilled but also incredibly expressive, making every routine a powerful statement. The show balances fierce competition with personal storytelling, allowing viewers to connect with the artists beyond their performances. The production quality is top-notch, with vibrant cinematography that truly enhances the visual spectacle of waacking.

Sooni Taraporevala you are a genius!

A classic Sooni Taraporevala masterpiece, with the characters having beautiful backdrops which unfold over the course of the show. I love parallel story lines and characters who have their lives intertwined (reminiscent of Little Zizou, another of sooni's works).

I remember watching ye ballet on Netflix, another one of sooni's works a couple years ago, which was great fun too. But this one takes the crown!! Kudos to the people who conceptualised it and executed it so beautifully!!

Hoping there's a season 2 coming soon! I finished seaon 1 in a weekend!!!! Hoping for longer episodes this time around

11/10. Must watch.

The Waack Girls are simply amazing! Watching them perform is an absolute treat-they're full of energy, creativity, and pure passion for dance. Their moves aren't just technically perfect; they tell a story that pulls you in and keeps you hooked till the very end.

What really stands out is how beautifully they express emotions through their dance. You can feel the dedication and hard work in every step they take. The way they move together, so perfectly in sync, shows the bond and chemistry they share as a group.

Whether you're into waacking or just love watching great performances, these girls will blow you away. They're inspiring, stylish, and completely unforgettable. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a performance that truly stands out.

A great show to be introduced to the wonderful world of whacking as a dance form and also includes the right amount of fun family and frolic just the way a good all round show should be. Does a great job at introducing whacking without alienating the uninitiated. Each and every actor in the show has given it their all and the talent is mesmerising. A big congratulations to the team and a beautiful job at direction by the awesome Sooni Taraporevala. Love the way the show progresses and the arc it takes and that end :( We absolutely can't wait for the second season to air, make it happen already Prime Video!

I deeply appreciate this series for its genuine respect for dance as an art form. If you're a fan of compelling drama or captivating dance, and especially if you enjoyed Taraporevala's last film, Yeh Ballet, you'll definitely love this series too.

Mekhola Bose-the lead actress and an accomplished professional Waack dancer-absolutely shines in her role as Ishani, the heroine. Having performed internationally for over a decade, Mekhola previously appeared in "Yeh Ballet" in a supporting role. But in "Waack Girls", she truly takes center stage. Casting a trained dancer like Mekhola, rather than an actor who can dance, gives the character an added layer of authenticity.

Her stage presence is magnetic-she commands the dance floor with both power and grace. Yet, it's her moments of vulnerability and her radiant smile that truly steal the show.
