Saas bahu aur flamingo review

In the iconic opening shot of Gangs of Wasseypur – Part 1 (2012), a television screen playing Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi is blown to bits by incoming gunfire. The scene served as a mission statement: Wasseypur is going to be a family saga like no other. Now, 11 years later, Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo signals something similar with its title. The series — directed by Homi Adajania and streaming on Disney+ Hotstar — is also about a family engaged in an illicit trade. The only difference is that, unlike Savitri ( Storyline: Savitri, played by Dimple Kapadia, runs a clandestine drug empire with women of her family and community. Gang wars, busts, and an internal succession battle ensue An early ambush that Savitri and her coterie successfully foil at their haveli — fighting with knives, flower vases and random trinkets — signals the revisionist stance the series is primed to take. Yet, as it progresses, we realize Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo is drawing more from daily soap operas than it is critiquing. Savitri is addressed by her adherents as ‘Rani baa’ (an alternative title for the show could have been Baa, Bahu Aur Kiwi). When her sons — oblivious corporate workers from the US — turn up for Janmashtami, the series wends its way into a succession drama. Some of the interpersonal rivalries are very TV serial-like; Savitri even has an adoptive son, not unlike Tulsi Virani in Kyunki.

Director: Homi Adajania Star cast: Dimple Kapadia, Radhika Madan, Varun Mitra, Isha Talwar, Angira Dhar, Deepak Dobriyal, Ashish Verma Bollywood Bubble ratings: 4/5 stars Saas Bahu Aur Flamingo REVIEW: NOTE: The Saas Bahu Aur Flamingo review is based on first and second episodes only. If you’re under the impression of a typical saas bahu drama, then think twice because Saas Bahu Aur Flamingo is going to leave you surprised. The series of 8 episodes is about 4 women who are running a narcotics business under everyone’s noses. They are badass, feisty and moreover, they are the queens of the town. They are situated in a place in Rajasthan where they produce their own drug ‘Flamingo’ in a factory inside their own house and supply it internationally. Saviriti aka Rani Ba (Dimple Kapadia) is a drug lord who operates her business from her own Haveli along with a bunch of women and her babus. While she leads the game, her daughter-in-laws Bijlee (Isha Talwar) and Kajal (Angira Dhar) take care of the business. Along with them, the triumph card is Shanta (Radhika Madan) as she is the one who knows the formula for making Flamingo. They all work remotely but with full power. However, running a narcotics business is not that easy as the state police are busy looking into the matter. As they investigate the drug business, on the other hand, Rani Ba’s (Dimple Kapadia) business comes into danger. A man named Monk (Deepak Dobriyal) comes into the picture and is at loggerheads with Savitri....

In ‘ Saas Bahu and Flamingo, Homi Adajania gives us a heady mix of genres – desi western, feminist fable, bursting with feisty women, laced with gleeful gore and grunge, and altogether a barrel of wild fun. Savitri (Dimple Kapadia) is a drug lord (or lady, if you want to be like that), who operates out of a sprawling haveli in fictional Rann Pradesh, surrounded by her crack team comprising two daughters-in-law, Kajal (Angira Dhar) and Bijlee (Isha Talvar), and her daughter Shanta (Radhika Madan). The fearsome foursome rules the roost, with the help of snazzy satellite phones, friends in right places, and the enviable ability to stay three steps ahead of their enemies, which includes the slate-eyed Monk (Deepak Dobriyal) and his henchmen, and hot-on-everyone’s-heels cop Prashun (Jimit Trivedi ). Also read | Their frenemies are always on their radar too: Savitri’s two sons Harish (Ashish Verma) and Kapil (Varun Mitra), bumming around in the US, back home on a break, clueless about their mother’s real ‘profession’, are more liability than asset; and a highly-placed politico ( Naseeruddin Shah), who once helped Savitri find her feet, constantly calling i...

Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo Season 1 Review Still From Trailer The way that director Homi Adajania handles his female characters is distinctly unusual. Saas Bahu Aur Flamingo’s prose is so dense with information that it continues peeling back new layers. This develops with each episode and immerses the viewer more deeply in the subject matter.

In an ecosystem smoothly run by women, when men are invited, and their egos are hurt, hell breaks loose, and now Rani Maa has to save the day. Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo Review: What Works: There is a substantial unique quality in how filmmaker Homi Adajania approaches his female characters. He is never bothered about what side of the spectrum women in his universe are; what matters is what choices they make at that moment that decides their future regardless of their gender or what it brings with it. That technically gives his content an upper hand in the list of such products. Example, the ever-so-rogue Veronica in With Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo, Homi Adajania, with his longtime collaborator Kersi Khambatta (Being Cyrus, Finding Fanny, and more), write a story of a world that feels is se...
