All of the performers performed well in their parts. I really like Naseeruddin Sir's performance. He gives his character so much depth. His presence on the show makes a significant effect. The idea is carefully thought out and the narrative is quite engaging. Every twist and curve is thoroughly thought out. The struggle of a young woman to deal with a bully mother-in-law has been realistically represented. It doesn't get much better than this. In my view, the show is a must-see. Furthermore, I believe it is addicting. Yes, you can get hooked to this one fantastic television show. You may certainly watch it with your family to pass the time.
Anwar Says: Matriarchy presented in a completely new avatar and a deadly drug cartel is being run by the all women in the family. The egos of men, when they enter, are killed by showing them that the show can be run by women. Homi Adajania has been able to create the atmosphere and the show is neither too paced nor too slow.
Ruthless badass Savitri's character was written keeping only Dimple Kapadia in mind. She says so much with her eyes and stillness that many can't even with loads of dialogues. Second to watch is nuances of Isha Talwar which she performed with conviction. Radhika Madan and Angira Dhar also played their twisted role well. Deepak Dobriyal as monk never impresses. Nasiruddin Shah seems to be out of even pocket money, so that he accepts such insignificant roles.
But what doesn't work for the series is predictability. You smell every turn much before and that makes the story haywire. Dialect used are also not well researched and rehearsed. Many a sequence are not connected and are unanswered. Cliffhanger confirm the second season, hope Homi would overcome the shortcomings.

Saas bahu aur flamingo is an action drama show directed by homi adajania.
Dimple kapadia is the outright star of this show. She is unflinched, unabashed and totally ruthless, and she hs pictured it wonderfully. Radhika madan, too brings her flavour into the scenes. She is the second best in line. Angira dhar and isha talwar are brilliant as well. Jimit trivedi did a wonderful job here. He has been seen mostly in comedic roles, but here, as a narcotics officer, he hits it out of the park. Varun mitra, ashish verma, udit arora do their best. Deepak dobriyal was a menace here.
The writing does not care to flesh out the characters of bijlee and monk. Monk had the capability of so much, but is just only a menace and not the devil. The lives of harish and kapil are just footnotes in the screenplay. What they did, what were their lives, how did it change after coming here, were not at all focused upon. The screenplay is really engaging. It has the style, the swag, also the substance in certain places, but the writers choose to keep a certain distance from the more actual stuff.
The background score is amazing to be honest. In the romantic scenes, or the tense scenes it does amplify the sequences. The cinematography is good. The action set-pieces were good, but could have been better. Towards the end of the series, the screenplay is rushed, the last episode does not hit you as much as it should.
Its a great series, could wait for a season 2. I rate it 8.5.

Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo definitely falls under the category of those very few unique storylines that keeps one glued to the plot, thats enamoured with twists and turns, making one curious enough to know how the tale winds up eventually - to make one conclude that the execution of the well-crafted narration gives rise to expectations that a lot more is about to come. Voila! The aspects of storytelling and thrill ride of what lies ahead has hit a mark. Granted the pace of the plot mellows down a bit but afterall, it helps build the character's representation with par to the story in a subtle manner, that could not go unnoticed! It has been quite an impressive avenue of entertainment in its own sphere. Kudos to everyone involved in manifesting it !
Excepting Radhika Madan (Shanta), every actor played their role perfectly. She didnt have a clear speech nor any changing expression on her face. Was struggling to understand what she was saying the whole time unlike the other actors who had a clearer delivery. Unsure if it was a choice for the character ?? Clearly not expected
Basic story line about the selection of heir from a bunch of choices but with good twists and plot. Lot of blood and gore. All the Makeup , clothing choices, sets were done really well. Wishing for a season 2 soon. Dimple Kapadia is an all time favorite 😍 who can make this a huge success.
