Faadu - A Love Story

Anwar Says: A story, you should have patience to watch , a slow- burner and unhurriedly narrated by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwary. A man born into ghetto and desperate to reach top and booming with overconfidence, meets a girl who finds poetry in every situation. They want to live happily but the real world test them at every stage.

Initial episodes tells you the journey of both Abhay and Manjiri , beautifully played by Pavail Gulati and Sayami Kher, but later episodes take you to the desperation of Abhay only . Manjiri contributes to his initial metamorphosis but finally exits. Abhilash Thapliyal , the alcoholic brother is a character, you would feel like loving and caring.

The relationship of father and daughter is a rare where she bares her soul to her father like a friend. The opposite perspectives of the two leads has been so simply told in one line ' I am America and she is Bhutan' . However, you have the loo time in every episode and the story could have been told in eight episodes. 7 out of 10 from me.

Faadu is a thought-provoking drama with beautifully written dialogues that leave a lasting impact. The performances are remarkable, with each actor delivering a fabulous portrayal of their characters. While the direction is solid, it doesn't reach extraordinary levels. Some scenes stand out with deep and meaningful conversations, adding to the emotional depth of the series.

However, the storyline feels overly familiar-a poor yet genius boy striving for success, only to fall into a dangerous trap, a trope we've seen multiple times. The portrayal of rich people as unethical and villainous feels stereotypical and one-sided. Additionally, the show seems to justify certain morally questionable decisions, raising concerns about the way semi-porn and prostitution are depicted. The pacing also falters at times, making it dull in bits and pieces due to its overused plot structure.

Verdict: Faadu has its strong moments, but its predictable narrative and repetitive themes hold it back from being truly exceptional. Worth a watch for the dialogues and performances, but don't expect anything groundbreaking.

Faadu-a love story is a romantic series directed by ashwiny iyer tiwari.

This series is poetry in motion. Lines are incorporated in this series' folds and breaths. That's what makes it imperfect and beautiful.

Pavail gulati and saiyami kher share an affectionate chemistry between them. They compliment each other really well. Abhay has the fire in him and manjiri is the river that cools him. Pavail gulati has given a standout performance this time, he has the vulnerability and also the restlessness of a dream. Manjiri wants a simple life, she wants to live through a poetic life. Abhilash thapliyal too packs a solid punch. Girish oak, daya shankar pandey, shishir sharma do the required. The performances are commendable.

The screenplay is a life journey. Various characters cone and go. Not everyone is worth remembering though. The arc of ratan kinkhabwala is an interesting one, while that of anant udeshi is not so much. A gangster with a soft conscience is much more interesting than the corporate mundane business. The episodes at the fag end do stretch the series a bit. It had to be edited in a better manner.

The music in this series is fabulous. Saath is soothing with some fantastic words. Mushkilein too is a wonderful addition to jazz aura. The bgm consists of strings being heavily used and it conveys the poetry beautifully. Santhosh narayanan has created a beautiful music score.

The cinematography successfully builds up the class differences. It romanticizes slum and also villainizes it at the same time keeping a n equilibrium. The philosophy is clear. In the quest of monetary success, one fails to differentiate the power of money buying things and the power of money buying you.

The Story Started Really well Showing Every Ounce Of Mumbai Slums And Its Living Pavail Gulati and Saiyami Kher Did it Naturally really good . Abhilash as always masters the role he is put into the whether its a kota teacher or an pure alchoholic .Gunjan Joshi's Outstanding work and liveliness in the acting made it really worth a watch (Died In the Series giving a large impact on the story even a gangster how he saves Abhay's Money and Also teaching Him why he should'nt have bet was really a goosebump scene) .Daya Shankar Panday perfection in his role was really stunning ( A Indian Father where his all life Money hi house has gone by his son yet his calmness and love after listening to what happen must Have Made Every son gambler or a trader think of his father how a father loves his son no matter what son does ). The Story was Really Good and is Really Interesting from the start Itself Every Character in the series is put on the screen really well. It was after a long time witnessing some natural actors .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. .. . . . . . . . . . .. . .. . . .. . .. . . . . .. . . .. .. . . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . . .. . . . .. . .. .. . .. .. . . . .. . . ... . . . ... .. . .. . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . . .. . . .. .. . . . . . . . . . . .
