Masaba Masaba

It's an easy going light hearted show that fictionalized the life of two real life characters. I really liked the show. Loved the character of masaba and her little self was awww. Overall, don't watch it as a serious watch. Watch it when you want to watch something light-hearted but something that will hook you. I finished all episodes at one go

Reality is better depicted in the series hence u would like the few twist n turns . Acting good . You can definately fast forward and warg the series

One thing that is good about the show, are the great performances by both Neena and Masaba Gupta. At the same time the rest of the case, doesn't do half bad a job.

The writing while not out of this world, does deliver some serious punches in a few episodes and weaves funny moments. The same goes for dialogues.

At times, it seems, the story is hell bent upon running itself down, but somehow manages to evade collision and chugs along.

The season only had six episodes. The plot , one feels could have allowed a longer season . But then again, the directors managed to keep up the tempo through the season, no matter how short it was. This is a good thing.

I would definitely watch the second season, if one is in the making.

Masaba Masaba isn't a biopic of the person it is centered on. Much like Masaba Gupta and her mother Neena Gupta's colourful life, it's a fictional and playful account of a part of their lives.

Masaba Gupta and Neena Gupta play themselves. Masaba plays herself with confidence, as if she's acting since a long time. She looks stunning. As expected, Neena Gupta steals the show. She plays herself with zest and in a natural manner. It's refreshing to see real life mother-daughter together on screen in a version of themselves and their lives.

The show is enjoyable, but again it has its amount of cringe worthy moments, which come from the cameo scenes of Kiara Advani, Farah Khan and Mithila Parker.

It's a clichéd show and gives a "been there done that" look into Masaba's life who manages herself, from a divorce to a ship show which turned into a complete mess, until rising again in the end. Some of the scenes show herself as a child, it depicts that she's quite the child now also, and wants to view life in that way. But none of the aspects truly appeal.

Writer director Sonam Nair's true merit lies in showing the aspect of Neena Gupta getting work again, which in real life, work started coming to her after she posted on Instagram asking for work, the show shows that aspect and also portrays her first day shooting for a film in which her character gets pregnant in the old age. We do all know it's "Badhaai Ho", and Gajraj Rao (who co-starred in Badhaai Ho) appears in a cameo in that scene.

The show is able to depict how disturbing media and social media is. But let's face it, to make everything enjoyable, the show didn't really present Masaba's life in a realistic manner.

It's one of the better shows from Netflix India and I'd recommend to watch this series for Neena Gupta, who proves that age is just a number. She and her daughter, Masaba are bold, likeable, zesty and even though the show is just about ordinary, it's watchable for these two wonderful ladies!

"Masaba Masaba" tries to do a lot of things in the very first episode and fails completely, it seemed that things were pretty rushed up as there was no bonding among the actors. But thankfully things start to fall together from the second episode onwards, and by the final episode Masaba Masaba has enough material to put a smile on you face, nothing exceptional in the series but a nice way to kill some time.

As a typical chick flick the web series contains tit bits on relationships, Gossip, fashion, men, work pressure, humour etc. What sets Masaba Masaba apart from other chick flicks is that, the protagonist's relationship with her mother. Acting in this web series is mostly rudimentary but pretty decent. Cameos from guest actors in each episodes were a surprise.

Technically, Cinematography was well handled. Screenplay contained all that was necessary for a chick flick. Being a fashionista herself, Masaba Masaba had some excellent costumes. Production design was par too. Editing ended to be a strong suite in Masaba Masaba, with a run time of little over 3 hours.

Overall Masaba Masaba will not set the screen on fire, but will not disappoint you either. The screenplay laced with humour helps, along with a short run time, the web series will be over before we get the hang of it. A must watch for millennials, and good way to pass a perfect evening for others. It's definitely above average.
