Permanent Roommates (2014)

After amazing us with their comedy sketches, TVF came up with another brilliant show - Permanent Roommates.
The two leads Tanya (played by Nidhi Singh) and Mikesh (played by Sumeet Vyas) are poles apart and yet when you put them together in a room, you'll see how they brighten each other up.
It may sound like it's an 'opposites attract' story, but you'll get so much more than you can ever expect. The charming and responsible Tanya keeps the show grounded; Mikesh on the other hand provides tons of comic reliefs and sometimes even imparts really good advice.
This webseries is primarily about today's metropolitan relationships and also works with many other subjects. It challenges stereotypical gender roles by making the girlfriend more emotionally stable in their relationship and raises questions against the idea of a Big Indian Wedding.
It is sweet, romantic and makes very real choices with the script.
Watch it because you'll surely relish the experience.

Permanent Roommates is the first drama series by "The Young Turks" of Indian television - The Viral Fever team. Watching these non-existent actors perform with such originality, many of whom were engineering students just few years ago, in colleges we have all studied in - gives you some different kind of joy, mixed with pride.this series is also about the engg. and some fundas about engg. life so it is watchable pls watch ang go happy

The show starts off well, with Mikesh who comes back to India and proposes to his long distance girlfriend Tanya for marriage. This begins their emotional journey that even threatens their relationship at one point in the show.
This show does well in all areas of creativity and execution and one can't help but fall in love with the lead actors, and relate to their emotional journey. Especially the adorable simpleton Mikesh who also, along with supporting actors (especially Pathik and Purshottam) fill up this emotional journey with well timed humor that makes this show a delight to watch. Moreover this show is about Mikesh and Tanya and their relationship, no unnecessary hurdles by parents, caste, religion, society or similar sources.

While the length of the episodes range from 14 minutes (first episode) to 38 minutes (final episode), I'm glad they didn't restrict themselves to have uniform length episodes which may have forced them to compromise on the quality.

Did you notice the two rings interlocked into each other in the word "room" in the title?! That's pretty cool !! The opening sequence of this show is also quite good !!

There are just too many emotional and well timed comic moments that it would be unfair to talk about them here. Moreover, the proof of the pudding is in the eating, and this pudding is an absolute delicacy. I am no authority in show business, but being a lifelong ardent viewer of sitcoms and romcoms, I can vouch for Permanent Roommates as one such show you can re-watch and experience the same delight and warmness.

This show is one those few shows in which the plot is realistic with perfect dose of subtle comedy and strong emotions. The script is nothing short of brilliant. The way series builds up from first episode is phenomenal. The lead characters share a great chemistry and compliment each other really well. Its a story about a boy and a girl discovering love out of a long distance relationship and eventually getting to the point of marriage. Mikesh is sort of an "egg head" and Tanya is the more mature and smarter one. After three years of long distance relationship suddenly Mikesh proposes to Tanya for marriage which in turn creates confusion between the two. And the couple somehow manages with the baggage of their decision. Season one is more funny and reasonable. It is more compact in its storytelling. Season two also share the same theme, but it is more dramatic. The plot is a little bit loose and focuses more on the human elements and values of family, society, and culture. But overall season 2 ends on a great note leaving us wanting more. Vaibhav Bundhoo once again has worked his magic with his musical talent, and has created some really mesmerizing and amazing track. The real MVP's are the writers who have created a story so simple yet so compelling and engaging without getting boring or feeling stretched at any point if time.

Permanent Roommates typically revolves around a young couple - Tanya & Mikesh. It wonderfully portrays how, this very couple face the prospect of marriage after having stayed together in a long-distance relationship for quite a while. It is really riveting to see how two people of totally different personality types, stick along with their decision to stay together despite all the difficulties coming their way. The journey gets a little intense sometimes but this guy Mikesh with a #Whimsical sense of humor manages to win back the heart of his #SweetHeart Tanya every single time! So many minor clashes, and light- hearted #Disagreements; yet #Love keeps them going. All in all, TVF Permanent Roommates is a #sublime combination of #love, #drama , #comedy and how the Oh-So-Sweet couple and their respective families come together as one!
