Tara is an unconventional female lead. Women are never allowed to be THAT flawed in Bollywood. And I've absolutely loved the writing behind her character.
The friendship between the arjun and shobitha is just amazing . the scene stole my heart is when .shweta tripathi calls off the wedding ..her expressions.. No words!!!
I watched that scene like 5 times and still can't be over it. It takes guts to leave a marriage like that and the narration in the background makes the scene a bliss to the eyes.
That was probably the best scene. When Sweta Tripathi walks out, accompanied by that soulful narration, I must say, it has to be one of the rare moments of your viewing experience you are gonna remember for the rest of your life.
Yes and his character really had an arch I went from despising him to somewhat empathising with him towards the end, the role of his daughter is well played too I have seen her before in a couple of webseries on TH-cam but she always plays her characters convincingly.
About the hypocritical aspect, I felt it was a strength of the series because humans are of dual nature and by addressing it the series has aptly presented inner conflicts of the lead characters. A nice review nevertheless
I don't even consider it as hypocritical. When the 22-year-old has already done something she realises she should not, the lesson is learnt. Her guilt and body reactions show it. Going against her, and destroying her life, when she has determined to make it right by her fiancè is something positive. In the second example, where the girl in Ludhiana stays married to the NRI, is clearly her choice. Her lack of choice of men is her true tragedy, and the protagonists give her a choice there, and she herself chooses to go with him, choosing the lesser evil.
Couldn't agree more, I felt it was flawless. For while I was watching the series, new characters kept introducing but my focus from the main characters was intact.
Exactly! Literally every single charecter (besides Kabir) had fucked up majorly, done something bad, and yet did such amazing things that it was impossible to hate them. People seem to hate Tara, but I love her. There's nothing better than complex, morally grey, REAL charecters
I politely disagree. There is a difference between hypocritical characters and grey characters. Grey characters are imperfect and don't always abide by what we think is moral or ethical. Hypocritical characters contradict themselves at different situations, this leads to the audience not understanding who the protagonist really is.
I started watching the web series Two days back, on the fourth episode currently, this show is really good. I really like how Shashank Arora concludes the episodes by telling the harsh reality behind the decorated wedding scenes!!
The morality flaw you mentioned is flawed I feel. All the character action is based in the situation/moment they are in, or what the character is going through. When Karan screams at the mehendi girl, he has gone through a horrible experience in jail and his repression is projected on that girl to do something whereas when he tells the drunk bride who is puking to forget and get married. In that situation it’s a perfect solution for her to keep the wedding going on and that falls in his morality compass of certain things people should not know about you as he is the same- dishonest and hiding his identity. I feel it’s a brilliant and well written show. A benchmark for Indian content and something I’m glad so many people will be exposed to in India.
Good observation! I had the same thoughts.. Very well thought of in the script...even Tara telling the bride to stick around for the 5000 crores when she did not discover the affair and introspect about her actions.. Later in the case of the dowry decides to tell the bride...
I have watched the series and my God your review is so intricate and apt. About the series I especially liked that the Arjun Mathur's character and his relationship with Nawab wasn't potrayed as a stereotypical presentation rather a normal and realistic relation with its own ups and down.
I was so captivated that I literally binge watched it. There are some series where you can easily skip minutes of content without worrying about losing a memorable scene. But when I was watching Made In Heaven I didn't even think about the skip button. There are many shows which have worked around the LGBTQ+ concept but none of them could match the execution of Made In Heaven. Intriguing, cunning and literally one of the best Indian web series across any platform.
In the second episode, the narrator has this hard hitting line in one of his monologues, that one can easily miss out on. It goes something like this "... *What's not so interesting is that, apparently all it takes is cooking and praying* ..." I just can't emphasise enough how good this line is! It directly attacks the patriarchy deep ingrained within the society, irrespective of social status, place of upbringing and level of education. Of how women are reduced to only pray and cook for the males.
Jabardast web series hai.. 👌 Har episode emotion se bhara hua hai.. Section 377, love affair, sexually assaulting, weddings narrating, friends and family, little psycho things, character are so beautiful, I want 2nd part 👍 (M commenting before ur watching ur video) But u are also great creater 😄
The second point in "not so good" where you mention that a new marriage project is a road blocker to character development, I think you missed an important aspect. I agree every new project was taking away the attention of the viewer but so was the point. It was stealing the attention of center characters from their lives and added the depth in showing their frustration of juggling back and forth from their own issues to other's issues. In one of episode, karan also rants if we can just do our work lights camera catering and not get involved in anything else.
How has your channel not reach 1 Million yet ?????? Well who cares, your fantastic content and unique perspective make me eagerly wait and watch your videos within minutes of release if I can 😁😁
It wasn’t hypocritical, it was refreshing to see that characters are shown that they are human and can have change of hearts , it happens to everyone in real life
Special kudos to the casting team. They had perfect actors playing even the tiniest parts. Apart from the popular names of TV and digital world, Jazz, Vinay Pathak's daughter, young Karan and Nawab, the bride who marries NRI stood out for me. Sobhita (Tara) was also unknown to me before this show. She was so good and for some reason gave me Radhika Apte vibes.
For me,one of the most brilliant performance was of Vinay Pathak,playing a gay man who could not come out due to social restrictions.Totally commendable
Sandeep saini social restrictions,my friend...vinay pathak’s character had to hide his sexuality forever after getting married...after noticing karan mehra (arjun mathur) he realised he was not as brave as karan is
@@Sandeepsaini-wh4jg yes! They are as much a man as you are. It's just that they like men as their sexual partner. All their man parts( testes/penis) are normal. I guess you confused gay men with intersex.
If amazon keeps making such series, I shall happily pay ₹999 each year. And the moral swings are justified in my opinion. It's deeply integrated with what is actually happening in character's own life.
Taara - One of the best written character ever. This series literally gives the feel of modern Indian literature at it’s best. Desperately waiting for it’s season 2 and just wondering why they are delaying it so much.
We definitely need more of these shows. On a personal note, I found Made In Heaven to be much better than Sacred Games. Sobhita is a knockout and I wish to see so much more of her, her chemistry with Jim wasn't just sexy and but they actually made a phenomenal pair. Throughout the course of this show the characters are portray different arcs and that was so refreshing to watch as it completely destroyed whatever preconceived notion you had of them. Hats off to Zoya Akhtar...👏. And thank you Jammy Pants for reviewing this gem 🌼
You said in your review that the characters are not always morally correct . But don't you think that's what makes us humans . You can't always be righteous. You can't stand for everyone when your own life is fucked up.
I completed whole series in just a day .It made me want to see more.Every character is so well shown .They gave all the message through intricate details and excellent storyline . I feel it was necessary to show that these people can't solve all the issues because that's what happens in real life .They tried but they left the choice for the own respective person .It is one of the best series I have seen so far . No trashy filmy romance shows the true perspective of a person and how they would react .Highly recommended.
I have watched a couple of episodes from this series so far and I have to say, I really like it so far. But I do differ in opinion from you as regards the hypocrisy and fleshing out characters points. All the characters seem to have a moral compass which is at least slightly skewed. I might not agree to every way 'Tara' convinces the brides but then being a go-getter businesswoman as you described her, I don't think visions of a very successful marriage for each of her couples is what she is looking for. She is looking to complete the wedding she is engaged to complete, get the appreciation, pay and get out of there. I doubt she would be very successful if she brought out peoples' conscience to do what is right rather than what would work right now. As regards how we see only glimpses of the main characters' back story, that I believe is way better than investing a major part of an episode in their story. Many shows on TV just go astray with too much importance being given to the main characters and the basic story line (in this case -wedding planning) taking a backseat.
I completely agree with the first point.. levels of hypocrisy... I understand sometimes you stand for something and sometimes you don't.. but in the last episode- where they help the bride escape the wedding.. I felt that was a little unexpected and didn't feel that it mirrored society like the other episodes.. I loved the cast.. all of them underrated. Although Jim Sarbh seems to get his due nowadays. :)
Of course it mirrored society correctly, how can you say no. Just because you didn't belong there doesn't mean it doesn't happen! Not everything will relate to you.
The moment Vikrant Massey appeared on screen, i was like.. "Boy... Why didn't they cast him as Karan? He would have nailed it." And then i found out that the creators had the same thought but due to date conflicts, they went with Arjun Mathur (who was mindblowing btw).
Made in Heaven was sooooo good. Each episode was good on its own and the climax was so satisfying. It's the best thing on intersectional feminism and rights of LGBT. It's superb.
Sorry to disagree with your term hypocritical aspect. This show is based on pure human reflections on certain issues and perspectives to see the layers of social dilemma. This show honestly depicts the morale aspects of being human. Every character has their Grey sides and demons. To achieve success or being accepted in the society, even the major characters did things that they are not proud off. Still they indulge to those situations where things went crazy such as rape attempt, hiding the fact to save a marriage, going to press or kidnapping the bride. On other occasions where the victim or individual accepted their fate, they watched from Distance with a heavy heart like the small town girl got married with an impotent and self obsessed NRI, girlzilla bashing their stuffs and all. This show perfectly portraits the uncertainty of this hypocrite society. Sometimes we get justice and mostly not. At the end of the day only true friendship survives while family gave up. In my opinion this show should be celebrated just like the other popular shows like mirzapur, the family man or sacred games.
I agree with your take on Kabir's character. It made the narrative more layered, and at the same time, sort of bridged the gap between the outsider and the insider. I also think that the failure of the main protagonists in acting out some of their beliefs in certain situations is not a flaw in the film-making, but an attempt to point out the inherent flaws in people. It is hypocrisy, for sure. But that was the message- the intrinsic hypocrisy in the value systems of people. For instance how Tara stands against dowry, while herself being someone who plotted her marriage for reasons including financial stability and strata. Lovely video! Do Ship of Theseus!
Yes yes yes....I was also baffled by how their moral compass fluctuates...like how Tara behaves with her mom and sister when they show up unannounced to Adil's factory....and then how she was a nice daughter and sister, a couple of episodes down. But having said that ...it's a nice and engaging show.
i think so much of it is situational, like, she obviously loves her mom and sister but in that very public space where she's surrounded by a literal representation of her husband's wealth, her mom/sister remind her (negatively) of her roots. She was also caught unawares so she wasn't dealing with them on her own terms. it's clear that their relationship, especially how her mother grooms her and her sister to "gold dig"(out of care for their future, but so manipulative and comparative!), is very complex.
Oh man !! I fucking love her . She got the taste of her own medicine btw Adil doesn't deserve any woman seriously , that man can never stay loyal in a relationship.
Finished season in just one go.....It was so engaging. Karan and Tara's characters were so well defined. And I strongly felt dil dhadkne do should have been made in web series way.
When i first saw the comments on this series' trailer, i noticed it was filled with people who hated it and wanted "something new" or "something relatable" and not this "indian crazy rich asian" type stuff. People should wish for great series, it doesn't have to be new, but it should be well made. New new ke chakkar mein idiots are appreciating mediocre series like "mirzapur" just because its "rAw and ReLaTabLe", while series like made in heaven gets judged just because they are about a topic that has been covered before.
So agree with you. Just because the show looks dirty, covers mafia -ish characters who swear all the time doesn't exactly mean the show is good. Made in Heaven was amazing.
The truth is the trailer never did any justice to this series. I did not want to watch the series for a long time cos of the trailer which reminder me of Band Baja Baraat. But once I watched it, I was blown away. And even after a year, I like re-watching the series again and again. The music and bgm is amazing, which you forgot to mention. Also the character playing the Production head is also sketched out beautifully. In fact, her character is one which is more black and white when compared to all other characters. Also the platonic love between Karan and Tara is so smooth. Both are grey characters, but a match made in heaven.
The series was outstanding.....the novel script...the outstanding actors..who rarely get such meaty roles in Bollywood...and the wonderful cinematography....all added up to create a new benchmark for web series in India...
Jazz's parents language and accent totally change from one what it was in episode 1 to episode 3. 😂😂😂😂 Guess they forgot to remain consistent for smaller characters!
Bro you have put into words precisely what i felt about this show. But mere liye shashank arora ki acting was extra impressive. Everyone's acting felt very real.
i started seeing the web series, even before i watched this video.just love the series. even the grey shade and not always moral character of service providers, is what really how we are....
I don't understand #jammypant how you are too acute about the cinema world . In all the spaces I find my thought exactly matching yours , it's ironical at times but I get the utmost satiety by going through your opinions for the big screen acting. I find your channel as one of the most relevant , unique and logical content delivering channel . Kudos to you and your entire team , and hats if to your splendid spoken skills . Keep the the great work !
I never watched a web series (all episodes) in one day... But in this case I've watched all the episodes in one day....I just love the characters Tara and Karan... will waiting for season 2...best Indian web series ever...
Acc to me the introduction of new storyline in every ep and how protagonist life was revolving around those wedding and there messed up personal life was the best part Hypocrisy is something every one tends to reflect in their character u might be vocal about one thing and silent about the other coz we ain't perfect in every sphere of society
I completed it last night. 🔥❤️Brilliant performances by actors. Wholesome show, emotions beautifully captured, I cried too especially in Karan's scenes, very new and refreshing theme chosen. Worth your time.
finally completed watching this series and no doubt it is awesome. I believe the eighth episode was the best one because the conclusion was so apt and to the point. Really loved these lines, "can someone tell me why the wedding day is the most important day of a girl's life....the hardship is clearly borne less for the girl and more for the world" by Shashank Arora. Anmol, @jammypants4, your channel is even more awesome, the way you describe and the elements you catch in movies and TV series are really good!!
One channel I thoroughly wait to see is yours. I eagerly wait for your analysis as it is more in depth than the actual content we watch. You do a terrific job. It's time you take a leap forward and join a good production house as your work needs more recognition.
Not a huge fan of Zoya Akhtar but I adored this series. Binged watched it that day it was released. I read mixed reviews about it but I personally loved it and it's worth watching.
Kalki was insanely good and gave an extremely nuanced performance. She had to get every pitch right because it could have gone haywire had she not. Vikrant Massey was unbelievable in a cameo! The best part of the show is it has got everyone talking about it - their likes and dislikes about the show. The best part is everyone has different opinions. What has appealed to one isn't appealing to the other, and what you probably cringed is loved by the other. Now that's success!
What I like about it was tara and karan’s friendship, Tara’s leaving her husband for adultery with her best friend, how determined Tara was to keep going with her business by bringing all her jewelry at the end, the new girl working in the made in heaven refusing Shawshank and go back to her community ,Adil’s personality was amazing, the other partner of Tara (I forgot his name) was the best, how he teaches Adil business! I want to watch season2……season 3…….,
I think the beauty of the stories in this web series lies in the fact that the characters are positioned in an ambivalence, their negotiations situated in a space that allows them to be neither fully this, nor fully that, rather such tension exists in a continuum. Case in point is Shobhita's character. On the one hand she is aware of the reality of her tumultuous marital life but negotiates with both her potential for upward social mobility that her high society millionaire husband can offer, but at the same time she knows about his adulterous side of his personality too. The beauty lies in the greyness of the characters which aptly captures everyday reality of a complex world that we inhabit. I am in absolute awe with this series. Thank you so much for your review. #fanboy
It’s a really beautiful show.. very nice and gripping stories with a social message in every episode and the inner turmoils of the lead characters are beautifully presented..

I was sold with this line. This show is a 9/10. Prime is back. Nexflix got competition. Thanks for doing this video.
That was probably the best scene. When Sweta Tripathi walks out, accompanied by that soulful narration, I must say, it has to be one of the rare moments of your viewing experience you are gonna remember for the rest of your life.

It's a 10/10 for me. Absolutely.

Shashank Arora is such a fine actor. His monologues towards the end of every episode were lit 👌👌 .
Well said..
You missed reflecting on Vinay Pathak character. I thought he was brilliant in portraying a man in the closet and living a dual life.

She is sweta tripathi...... she is excellent actress
The point is hypocrisy is actually refreshing because all humans are imperfect and selfish in some way or other . So tired of perfect characters
And that's what I love about zoya she always writes complexed characters

Many shows on TV just go astray with too much importance being given to the main characters and the basic story line (in this case -wedding planning) taking a backseat.
I completely agree with the first point.. levels of hypocrisy... I understand sometimes you stand for something and sometimes you don't.. but in the last episode- where they help the bride escape the wedding.. I felt that was a little unexpected and didn't feel that it mirrored society like the other episodes..
I loved the cast.. all of them underrated. Although Jim Sarbh seems to get his due nowadays. :)
Of course it mirrored society correctly, how can you say no. Just because you didn't belong there doesn't mean it doesn't happen! Not everything will relate to you.
I really loved the series, character development was so good and how the story developed was very very worthwhile
I literally binged watched the whole series in less than 2 days. Thanks for the recommendation! I loved it!!
The moment Vikrant Massey appeared on screen, i was like.. "Boy... Why didn't they cast him as Karan? He would have nailed it."
And then i found out that the creators had the same thought but due to date conflicts, they went with Arjun Mathur (who was mindblowing btw).
In all his interviews arjun has said that he was the first choice always!
@@medstud8358 Hard luck! 🙂It shows on the trivia section of the show on Prime itself that Vikrant was the fitst choice.
Vikrant was the first choice for nawab...and they have mentioned that...
Not arjun...
Made in Heaven was sooooo good. Each episode was good on its own and the climax was so satisfying. It's the best thing on intersectional feminism and rights of LGBT. It's superb.
How can you jump from sacred games to made in heaven without mentioning mirzapur.
Being an Indian and a Jojo fan has really got some advantages. One of them was visiting your channel
'Fear can give you courage', just what I needed. Enjoyed the series, very important one too in today's times, esp for Indian audience.
Along with this series,your voice is also made in heaven 🥰
I was waiting for your review.
Now I'll watch it
No one cud have been a better narrator than Kabir ♥️
Nawab & Karan's love was so pure! ❤
The way Nawab looked at him 😍
True ❤️
This is a masterpiece!! Thanks for reviewing!
I hope you reach 1 million ASAP!! ❤
Sorry to disagree with your term hypocritical aspect. This show is based on pure human reflections on certain issues and perspectives to see the layers of social dilemma. This show honestly depicts the morale aspects of being human. Every character has their Grey sides and demons. To achieve success or being accepted in the society, even the major characters did things that they are not proud off. Still they indulge to those situations where things went crazy such as rape attempt, hiding the fact to save a marriage, going to press or kidnapping the bride. On other occasions where the victim or individual accepted their fate, they watched from Distance with a heavy heart like the small town girl got married with an impotent and self obsessed NRI, girlzilla bashing their stuffs and all. This show perfectly portraits the uncertainty of this hypocrite society. Sometimes we get justice and mostly not. At the end of the day only true friendship survives while family gave up. In my opinion this show should be celebrated just like the other popular shows like mirzapur, the family man or sacred games.
I agree with your take on Kabir's character. It made the narrative more layered, and at the same time, sort of bridged the gap between the outsider and the insider.
I also think that the failure of the main protagonists in acting out some of their beliefs in certain situations is not a flaw in the film-making, but an attempt to point out the inherent flaws in people. It is hypocrisy, for sure. But that was the message- the intrinsic hypocrisy in the value systems of people. For instance how Tara stands against dowry, while herself being someone who plotted her marriage for reasons including financial stability and strata.
Lovely video! Do Ship of Theseus!
Yes yes yes....I was also baffled by how their moral compass fluctuates...like how Tara behaves with her mom and sister when they show up unannounced to Adil's factory....and then how she was a nice daughter and sister, a couple of episodes down. But having said that ...it's a nice and engaging show.
i think so much of it is situational, like, she obviously loves her mom and sister but in that very public space where she's surrounded by a literal representation of her husband's wealth, her mom/sister remind her (negatively) of her roots. She was also caught unawares so she wasn't dealing with them on her own terms. it's clear that their relationship, especially how her mother grooms her and her sister to "gold dig"(out of care for their future, but so manipulative and comparative!), is very complex.
"morality is subjective"
i lovre that sobitha was offered this role really gave her a space to portray her acting , ofc along with the other talented actors
They literally show us how a clever and strong woman can dig rich man's gold :)
I just started watching the series and must tell you that it’s totally worth watching series just completed 3 episodes
A masterpiece which more than a masterpiece have ever made in India...
Yaaaaap season 2 is coming
Craving for this ❤
This is honestly one of the best TV series I have seen in my life. I was blown away.
I love the character if "Tara" hope everyperson have a friend like tara in his or her life
I thought that too until the last episode. Good that she realized her mistake though
Oh man !! I fucking love her . She got the taste of her own medicine btw Adil doesn't deserve any woman seriously , that man can never stay loyal in a relationship.
Finished season in just one go.....It was so engaging. Karan and Tara's characters were so well defined. And I strongly felt dil dhadkne do should have been made in web series way.
This show was so good and refreshing. If there's a season 2 I only hope it gets as good as season 1
I've watched the series 3 times, and I think this sums up my love for it.
I wished that you have to do it, now you came with this wonderful series. I just love it
Thank you for reviewing this. I am always skeptical when starting a new series. This really helps a lot
When i first saw the comments on this series' trailer, i noticed it was filled with people who hated it and wanted "something new" or "something relatable" and not this "indian crazy rich asian" type stuff.
People should wish for great series, it doesn't have to be new, but it should be well made.
New new ke chakkar mein idiots are appreciating mediocre series like "mirzapur" just because its "rAw and ReLaTabLe", while series like made in heaven gets judged just because they are about a topic that has been covered before.
So agree with you. Just because the show looks dirty, covers mafia -ish characters who swear all the time doesn't exactly mean the show is good. Made in Heaven was amazing.
Tea
I'm so glad you reviewed this series. It's so well thought and nuanced, and it's a surprise that Indian content is here now
The truth is the trailer never did any justice to this series. I did not want to watch the series for a long time cos of the trailer which reminder me of Band Baja Baraat. But once I watched it, I was blown away. And even after a year, I like re-watching the series again and again. The music and bgm is amazing, which you forgot to mention. Also the character playing the Production head is also sketched out beautifully. In fact, her character is one which is more black and white when compared to all other characters.
Also the platonic love between Karan and Tara is so smooth. Both are grey characters, but a match made in heaven.
true.
The series was outstanding.....the novel script...the outstanding actors..who rarely get such meaty roles in Bollywood...and the wonderful cinematography....all added up to create a new benchmark for web series in India...
Karan mehra my favorite character in this series😊😊
Jazz's parents language and accent totally change from one what it was in episode 1 to episode 3. 😂😂😂😂 Guess they forgot to remain consistent for smaller characters!
Bro you have put into words precisely what i felt about this show. But mere liye shashank arora ki acting was extra impressive.
Everyone's acting felt very real.
I JUST LOVED THE SERIES... I WANT PART 2... SO MUCH TO LEARN FROM THIS SERIES 🤗
i started seeing the web series, even before i watched this video.just love the series. even the grey shade and not always moral character of service providers, is what really how we are....
One series that kept me hooked, i kind of knew she would have been the one to leak the video....
They show how gold digger exist but she was clever though
I watched it! Its beautiful loved the script! Vijay Raj had a stellar performance.
JammyPants loaddssss of luv from Pakistan... We all luv u and are die hard fans of ur shows n voice .. keep up the great work. Luv from Pak
You did a great job with the analysis, very well articulated!
I don't understand #jammypant how you are too acute about the cinema world . In all the spaces I find my thought exactly matching yours , it's ironical at times but I get the utmost satiety by going through your opinions for the big screen acting.
I find your channel as one of the most relevant , unique and logical content delivering channel .
Kudos to you and your entire team , and hats if to your splendid spoken skills .
Keep the the great work !
Totally agree! I loved watching the entire season one!
I never watched a web series (all episodes) in one day... But in this case I've watched all the episodes in one day....I just love the characters Tara and Karan... will waiting for season 2...best Indian web series ever...
The last episode completely stole my mind.
Acc to me the introduction of new storyline in every ep and how protagonist life was revolving around those wedding and there messed up personal life was the best part
Hypocrisy is something every one tends to reflect in their character u might be vocal about one thing and silent about the other coz we ain't perfect in every sphere of society
I appreciate you appreciating indian web series, too, as much as you cover Indian new releases. 👍
You missed Vinay Pathak. He was totally magnetic in his scenes
I completed it last night. 🔥❤️Brilliant performances by actors. Wholesome show, emotions beautifully captured, I cried too especially in Karan's scenes, very new and refreshing theme chosen.
Worth your time.
Waiting for season 2.... The trailer of Made in heaven didn't do the justice to the actual content. Just loved the series ❤️❤️
I recently watched this
This show is mind-blowing and it also give very good messages to the society.
❤️
What a coincidence! I just now put it on download lol! Have been seeing good reviews everywhere!!!!
A regular guy
finally completed watching this series and no doubt it is awesome. I believe the eighth episode was the best one because the conclusion was so apt and to the point. Really loved these lines, "can someone tell me why the wedding day is the most important day of a girl's life....the hardship is clearly borne less for the girl and more for the world" by Shashank Arora.
Anmol, @jammypants4, your channel is even more awesome, the way you describe and the elements you catch in movies and TV series are really good!!
I am happy, I discovered your channel. And now I am addicted to your channel.
One channel I thoroughly wait to see is yours. I eagerly wait for your analysis as it is more in depth than the actual content we watch. You do a terrific job. It's time you take a leap forward and join a good production house as your work needs more recognition.
Apart from this your review is actually great. Nice job . Keep improving
Not a huge fan of Zoya Akhtar but I adored this series. Binged watched it that day it was released. I read mixed reviews about it but I personally loved it and it's worth watching.
Jimmy, just meant to ask.. are you getting paid for promotions? Been too many positive reviews and 'watch this' videos recently..
First btw Love your videos...
Loved 90% of Made in heaven , loved the way series touched the social cause and how they intervened
Kalki was insanely good and gave an extremely nuanced performance. She had to get every pitch right because it could have gone haywire had she not. Vikrant Massey was unbelievable in a cameo! The best part of the show is it has got everyone talking about it - their likes and dislikes about the show. The best part is everyone has different opinions. What has appealed to one isn't appealing to the other, and what you probably cringed is loved by the other. Now that's success!
What I like about it was tara and karan’s friendship, Tara’s leaving her husband for adultery with her best friend, how determined Tara was to keep going with her business by bringing all her jewelry at the end, the new girl working in the made in heaven refusing Shawshank and go back to her community ,Adil’s personality was amazing, the other partner of Tara (I forgot his name) was the best, how he teaches Adil business! I want to watch season2……season 3…….,
Jauhari ji played by Vijay raaz
I think the beauty of the stories in this web series lies in the fact that the characters are positioned in an ambivalence, their negotiations situated in a space that allows them to be neither fully this, nor fully that, rather such tension exists in a continuum. Case in point is Shobhita's character. On the one hand she is aware of the reality of her tumultuous marital life but negotiates with both her potential for upward social mobility that her high society millionaire husband can offer, but at the same time she knows about his adulterous side of his personality too. The beauty lies in the greyness of the characters which aptly captures everyday reality of a complex world that we inhabit. I am in absolute awe with this series. Thank you so much for your review. #fanboy
It’s a really beautiful show.. very nice and gripping stories with a social message in every episode and the inner turmoils of the lead characters are beautifully presented..
Exactly this things needs to talk about ...I have felt the same
Shobita reminds me deepika padukon in few scenes
Even her voice is similar
