" Dil Dosti Dilemma" streaming on Prime Video is a series depicting the disconnect between the older generation and the Gen Z... and how it is bridged once the youngsters realise that they can make a difference by playing an active role, rather than remaining apathetic and indifferent...has all the ingredients for a heartwarming tale of friendship and camaraderie and about the culture and traditions... it's directed by Debbie Rao and based on Andaleeb Wajid's YA novel, "Asmara's Summer"... this Series is set in Bengaluru...we get to see glimpses of it... Anushak Sen as Asmara is a delight to watch...a natural and blends into being Asmara with absolute ease...she holds her ground firmly even in the scenes with the more experienced Tanvi Azmi.... Shishir Sharma is absolutely adorable as Naanu...absolutely natural...and so is Tanvi Azmi, she looks so graceful... special mention must be made of the few romantic scenes between Tanvi and Shishir ...sooo cute...

This Series doesn't want you to rack your brains in over the top drama, but instead has you laughing, having fun, crying and falling in love with your family in the simplest and yet complicated ways... plus the characterisation of the 3 friends and how Debbie Rao explores the complexities of teenage friendship, is perfectly displayed... Overall it's a low-cal, feel-good entertainer that gradually draws you in, just the way Asmara is drawn into Tibri Road...and leaves you dangling in anticipation for the next season...

Nice serial......saw 2 episodes only......grandson wants to watch something else......giving it a break.

Somebody has done a good job of researching the lifestyle in the separate environments and the delinquencies of the immature children grown up to fake living standards.

The story until now is a fact of life and not just a figment of imagination. The reality isn't weird as sanskara and samskara only can bring the children onto the ground level.....sending her to her Naanis house is a correct resolution.

Humorous and keeps one glued to the TV. Your acting as the typical retired husband of the house is also an eye opener for all house holds.

The script is nice and natural, obviously, meant more for the present generation on values of relationships.

"Dil Dosti Dilemma" is a charming addition. The show's fresh cast brings a vibrant energy to the screen, making the story both engaging and a whole lot of fun. While it may not be the most groundbreaking series, its lighthearted approach makes it a perfect choice for a leisurely binge-watch.

The plot offers plenty of twists and turns to keep viewers hooked, and the relatable characters add a layer of depth. With a winning combination of humor, friendship, and a touch of romance, "Dil Dosti Dilemma" delivers a delightful viewing experience. If you're looking for a show that's easy to enjoy and guaranteed to leave you smiling, this one is worth checking out.

Adapted from the YA novel Asmara's Summer by Andaleeb Wajid, Dil Dosti Dilemma on Prime Video is a youthful and entertaining series that showcases Anushka Sen's talent in the lead role as Asmara, a privileged girl from Bengaluru whose planned summer trip to Canada gets unexpectedly rerouted to her grandparents' middle-class neighbourhood. This sets up a coming of age narrative filled with humour, life lessons, and emotional moments.

The supporting cast, featuring talented actors like Tanvi Azmi and Shishir Sharma as Asmara's grandparents add significant warmth to the storyline. Their interactions with Asmara are the best parts of the show. Unfortunately the subplots involving Asmara's best friends tend to derail the flow of the story. These story tracks are woefully underdeveloped and lack the same depth and charm as the core narrative that they constantly keep interrupting - not to mention the majority of the cringe humour is to be found with Asmara's interaction with her BFFs.

Ultimately, this is a cute series that strikes a balance between humour and drama while exploring themes of family, tradition, and self-discovery. Anushka Sen has a successful career ahead of her!

They have done some good stuff in this show, no denial. But the writing is so cringy, the characters so caricature-ish, and the depth show shallow that you just can't take it seriously.

This is one of those classic TVF style shows that are in trend which are a result of Flames and Immature being successful. Very low stakes, very lazy writing, no character depth at all.

If you're craving a Crushed/Immature style immature show with tryhard comedy this might be for you. But if you want to watch something that is actually meaningful, and is not based on the TVF success pattern of creating low stakes happy shows, this is not for you.
