I would list out ‘running out of period dramas to watch’ as a legit fear. I love them so much that almost every other form of content seems lacklustre in comparison. And I don’t even distinguish between period dramas – any kind of it will do. Romance, action, fiction, non-fiction, bio-pics, movie, web series, from... Continue Reading →
We’re all web series veterans now with the advent and penetration of OTT in our lives. All of us can pretty much form and express opinions on how web series must be created and what will make them successful in general. And we can guess some aspects that can lead to the downfall of a... Continue Reading →
I’m never one to shy away from embracing the impact of TV shows or being vulnerable to their plotlines. But I guess we all underestimate the level of impact they can have, especially when it comes to imparting ideas and shaping public opinion over socially important aspects. Not getting into the political end of it... Continue Reading →
Women centric shows with woke, success oriented and romantic themes are naturally and wildly popular. The idea of young women being rebellious, beautiful and successful while living through heartbreaks and love interests in an urban setup is a time tested backdrop for a long web series. Throw in some political references here and there, some... Continue Reading →
Slow, easy flowing and aesthetic period dramas have always been my favourite parts of Netflix. British period dramas are especially likeable and Downton Abbey on Netflix with its six seasons stretching across forty minute long episodes is a dream come true for a lazy viewer. A traditionalist family of an Earl living through the changes... Continue Reading →

Season 5 is around now and all expectations that we had about the story proceeding, action sequences taking off and character arcs developing have seen significant progress; making all of us happy. As much as... Continue Reading →
We’d have different parameters to classifying a show/movie into our favourite list. While I have a couple of things I look for to categorize them, generally the ones that don’t flinch from executing ruthless, edgy scripts are my easy favourites. I’ve watched enough of them to begin predicting what happens next in most cases but... Continue Reading →
I just finished one season of Peaky Blinders and it is quite amazing that I’ve stopped to write about it. It’s as addictive and engrossing as I expected it to be, and I’m just as in love with Thomas Shelby as is the complete ‘PFB’ fan base around the world. Most certainly, this is no...

A number of web series and movies are based on the idea of a small town and all kinds of emotional attachments it offers. The comfortable and selfless relationships, moderately significant twists and turns in life, the cosy feeling of togetherness in festivities where quite literally the entire town comes together – it’s all just...
