    Real Indian Middle Class Matchmaking

    The objectification and materialism is there but this is way more realistic than Indian matchmaking anyday. Shows how Seema aunty has evolved from this stage to what we see her today.

    Boring

    Good thing about this show was that is was realistic and showed the actual customs and traditions of Indian Marriages. It also showed what a girl and her family has to go through during and after the process of marriage. But it missed a lot of important aspects of the marraige and I feel there was a lot of scope for making this show in a better way.

    Fascinating!

    I loved Dipti's story the best. It was hard to watch her get rejected repeatedly. So glad she found a man who was worthy of her. Wish them every happiness.
