Made in Heaven is a Delhi based wedding planning company co-owned by Karan and Tara and this is their story. The last Indian series which kept me awake at night was Sacred Games.
MIH is binge-worthy. And that's the best quality of a series, I believe. Writing, direction, cinematography, dialogs, music- all A+.In an obvious Zoya Akhtar-ish style, it shows the upper middle class milieu, lavish weddings, crazy rich Indians in fancy destinations, dressed up like their lives depended on their costumes. Style meets substance though. The writing takes clever jibes at the system, patriarchy, sexism, classism, homophobia and other such social evils. For instance 'ruling party' becomes the euphemism for THE ruling party. The small side notes on feminism reminds you that several women have written/directed this.
I think it was a genius idea to release it on the eve of International women's day.Karan and Tara are not just wedding planners. They are wranglers, dreamers who have been let loose in Delhi.
The deconstruction of these characters and their origin story is the core and the best part of the series. These are two deeply flawed people. But in an addictive way.With Karan's charater, Indian film makers have finally matured enough in showing a young gay city man in a realistic environment. It's just refreshing to watch love-making scenes between two men shown without the heteronormative filter that we're so used to till now.
No sugar-coating, no sanitisation. (Think Ek Ladki ko dekha to aisa laga) At least I've never seen such a layered, realistic portrayal of an LGBT character in India.The fact that Karan and Tara are played by actors who are not stars works very well in the larger scheme of things, for me at least. They don't have a baggage.
(Think Saif in Sacred Games)The rest of the cast is also delectable and everyone brings their A-game. Really, if Prime India is going to come up with such content, they're going to give Netflix India a run for their money! This is a must watch if you love drama. Who said life is a straight path, dont we keep going in circles between past and future and see deeper meanings of truth. The day i saw the trailer when i went to watch Gully Boy, i knew, something good is arriving on 8th of march. Well watch it and see for yourself that when real artists are given their due artistic freedom they come up with realities that we often consciously refuse to see. From Karan and Tara, the two lead characters and their insecurities, we are taken to a whole bunch of characters, some flawed, some troublesome and others quite innocent like Jazz.
All in all there is Joya & Reema vibe to the whole series. Like ZNMD and Dil Dhadkne Do, Zoya utilises vocalising the inner thoughts of a 'photographer' this time, who unlike others is aware of the farceness of the world he is living in.Only love for this beautiful series.
Probably the most intelligent series that has ever come out of the Indian web series space. Certainly Amazon's best in India. The best part about it are the characters.
They engage you from minute 1. You feel like you want to know more and more about them. Why they are, how they are? Each episode has a different premise and that runs along with the central narrative surronding the main characters.
The performances from Sobhita Dhulipala and Arjun Mathur are top notch with the latter playing his comparatively tougher character with the utmost nuance and brilliance. Jim Sarbh is the other standout from the main cast!
Made in Heaven plays with and then blows your mind. The reason it is a great series is because it tricks you. You start watching it believing you'll be seeing some 'crazy rich people getting married' and a lot of sex but what you binge on instead, is intriguing yet a non-depressing complexity. Every episode, the plot evolves as the characters evolve. You are eased into this world with a slight superficial knowledge of the characters who need to make money and are willing to use not very fair tactics to get things done for selfish reasons. The same characters, later use the very same tactics for getting shadier but courageous stuff done. The 'gay' and the 'gray' area is treated with such sensitivity that homophobic people who are tricked into watching it, come out with an altered set of ideas.
Challenging AND changing mindsets in a patriarchal Indian society, is what this series has achieved. Dark souls pc controller not working. It has set a benchmark which will be tough to match up to. It will keep coming back to you, after you have watched it, in the form of one character or the other. While no character is right, none is wrong either. As they say, 'marriages are made in heaven' but how true is this? Made in heaven gives the appropriate answer to the question. Crafted with beautiful scenes and more beautiful cast, the 9 episodes series shows 9 different stories that are full of wedding vibes - beautiful people, colourful, fancy, ethnic clothes, and lots of music.
But the show doesn't only shows the beautiful side but takes you to the back door and shows the ugly face of beautiful elite Indian weddings.Each episode shows the different story with the episodic cast and an issue that we don't want to face. Life of the lead characters, apart from the episodic cast, runs throughout the show, and this works as a push to viewers to play the next episode.The shows also displays the homosexuality through its male lead. And I am delighted and content after watching the treatment done with character. Unlike many other shows and movies where gay characters were either reduced to joke or nonsense love angle, Made In Heaven keeps the the character authentic and real. The ensemble is brilliant and everyone has done justice to their part. I have personally enjoyed the roles of Shashank Arora and Shivani Raghuvanshi and the epilogues in each episodes. The show has a talented episodic cast of actors like Deepti Naval, Neena Gupta, Rasika Duggal, Manvi Gagroo, Vikrant Massey, and many others.The show doesn't only have an ensemble cast but an ensemble of directors as well.
Zoya Akhtar, Nitya Mehra, Prashant Nair, and Alankrita Shrivastava have done their work so well that the story doesn't feel going low at any second of the show. Equal credit should be given to the writers' team - Zoya Akhtar, Reema Kagti, and Alankrita Shrivastava.
Music is soothing and suits the scenes.The show is absolutely binge worthy and it will leave you to crave for more. With almost no flaws in the show I have it 10 stars. I was so shocked to see 8.4 rating to such a wonderful show.
I mean, the show is so great that can't even skip the intro. Guys watch this show not only for the gargantuan sets and wedding but the also for the wonderful back stories of each of the characters. Every character, notwithstanding how large or small his/her role is, has played it perfectly. And Zoya Akhtar's direction is so beautiful. It is her year it seems, first Gully boy and now Made in Heaven.Watch it guys, it is the best Indian content available online!
