I tried really hard to like this show. I was drawn to it because it promised an interesting storyline and perspective. As an Indian, it pains me to have to see what I could only describe as the furthest possible thing from my expectations.
It's not just the very unbelievable acting that makes this show unbearable. I would like to point out that the first 3 episodes were basically just a rule book on how to mess up a sweet Indian girl.
While I appreciate a series with a lead Indian cast being a number 1 show, I promise you, it is OBJECTIVELY sub-par. It will leave you nothing but the sour taste of overexaggerated stereotypes and perhaps a smirk or two.
P.S. I didn't make this clear enough: THE CRINGE IN THIS SHOW IS INSANE!
Update: Just finished the first season. To its credit, the series does get better from after the 4th episode, but barely. It just meets the threshold to continue watching given the time I've already invested in it, probably will watch next season. Really hoping the show continues going uphill next season
