Why you must watch Amazon’s Made in Heaven

Check out the reasons you should watch Made in Heaven:

Amazon’s latest web series “Made in Heaven” has been released and is being applauded by Indian audience. The nine-episode fiction series is totally binge-worthy. I myself finished it in one day only. Created by filmmakers Zoya Akhtar and Reema Ragti, it is a fantastic show. It captures big fat Indian weddings and everything that goes behind it. It is a mixture of comprises, hypocrisies, double standards and struggles. The series also shut several stereotypes as well. Check out the reasons why you need to binge-watch this series right now:

  Repost from @officialhumansofbombay using @repostregramapp – “By the age of 10, I knew I wanted to be an actor. I’d visited a few film sets with my dad & I remember being enamored by it all. It was then that I knew–this is what I was going to do. I was 18 when I told my dad about my dreams. At first, he thought I was crazy; he wasn’t as starstruck as I was & was aware of the struggles. But I wanted to prove him wrong. So I moved to Bombay & started working as an AD to see how the cogs turned. 5 years later, it was time to make my move to acting. I enrolled in an acting course, joined a gym & began auditioning. One of my earliest auditions was with Mira Nair & it was the first time I faced the camera. I knew I was on the right track. My first feature film was Luck By Chance–that’s when my struggle began. For a while, work was scarce. Not because I wasn’t offered anything, but because I was typecast as the ‘Best Friend’. This had nothing to with talent but rather with the industry. I chose to wait for the right roles. At the time, huge films slipped out of my hands & went to a star-kid at the last minute. I was once told, ‘We can’t cast you because you’re better than the hero & we can’t have him share his limelight’ & that ‘You have everything it takes to be the lead, but the market won’t let us cast you.’ It was the harshest reality–knowing I was made for the job, with no surname to support me. Still, I believed in myself. I worked in smaller films. Honestly, I can’t count the number of rejections I faced. But this was Bollywood & this was how it worked. I’d chosen it for myself, so I had to embrace it. Every day is a new challenge–but I can’t afford to be disheartened, I remain patient & believe in my talent. After all this time, I have this show which showcases me correctly. I am certain that more doors will open, but until then–I’m ready to accept rejection as part & parcel of my passion. I’m going to keep working, hustling & dreaming until the day the ones that doubted me are proven wrong.” — HoB with Amazon Prime Video India brings to you the real stories of people which showcases the good, the bad & the ugly – all that is a part of the chaos of life, thr

Zoya Akhtar and Reema katgi explored the homosexual angle in a sensitive manner. Karan’s sexual orientation is much normalized, in fact, the characters also played it well, and he performed with grace and emotions. His love life is one of the most sensitive and genuine portrayals of a gay character you will witness on the Indian screen.

While Sobhita has made a mark with her strong performance, but her fashion style is also fabulous. Her corporate outfits are to die for and the red saree that she wears in the last episode is just gorgeous. From formal to wedding couture and accessories the styling is great and seamless. Costume design is by Poornamrita Singh, who has also worked on ‘Gully Boy’, and ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’ among others.

• The Visuals

Made in Heaven office, Tara Khanna’s house and the wedding destinations are just amazing. Every episode brings a new wedding destination and idea. The destinations are clearly setting wedding goals for some people. It is a show with extravagant visuals and stunning background score.

The women of ‘Made in Heaven’ are realistic and very relatable at times. Tara who creates her own career path, Priyanka who left her marriage because of dowry, and Nutan Yadav who is the daughter of a politician and speaks for her love. Many characters of this series depict real-life problems.

It is currently streaming on Amazon Prime. Go ahead and Binge!
