Tanhaiyan (2016)

Meera(surbhi Jyoti) and Haider(Barun Sobti) meet during their mutual friends’ wedding and are instantly drawn to each other. A hookup later, both of them realize their love for each other. But here, the antagonist is not a person, but their own demons. Both of them are held captive by painful memories of their pasts. Tanhaiyan follows the journey of this emotionally scarred couple, as they not only discover love but also themselves.
Surbhi Jyoti shines as a headstrong, yet a broken woman. She is equally convincing in romantic as well as emotional scenes. Not to mention, she shares crackling chemistry with her co-actor.
The aesthetics of the series are simply too good. Apart from styling all the actors in dapper outfits, the web series also scores high on production value. The sets are extravagant which make the show look like a big budget movie. The background score impresses. Good looks kept aside, Barun Sobti’s characters have had a reputation for being straight out of Mills and Boons. He is always the alpha-make, an angry young man with a soft core and turbulent past. Here, he’s also a playboy, mouthing cringe-worthy lines such as “a girl can get into my bed, but not in my head” The actor needs some serious palate cleansing. The romantic scenes are extremely cliche, some of them being a total rip-off from Bollywood.
Overall the series sure looks half-baked but if you’re someone who appreciates a feel-good romantic drama where two lonely characters meet each other and hit it off instantly and separate instantly only to reunite again instantly, then you might as well give this one a shot.

This was honestly the first Indian web series I had watched and I fell in love with Barun Sobti all over again. Even though it was only for 9 episodes, it hit my heart hard. We are generally used to watch these type of stories in the middle of the daily soaps but this drama detached all the melodrama's and attachment with several supporting characters and concentrated on rather these two characters Haider and Meera.

Instead of dwelling into the backstory and family drama, the main focus remained on the wedding and the on-growing flirty friendship is what attracted most of the youth to this web series. After watching several forms of love stories on Indian Television, watching Tanhaiyan made me actually connect with it and get that heart warming feeling than thinking of which evil family member might start some new conspiracy now.

A Khadus and a meethi Churi falls in love, this love story is a roller coaster from wit to comedy to sensual-ism to heartbreak. A typical Bollywood movie in the form of web-series, and what makes it Tanha! they want to be together but can't ( How sad!) If you are a bollywood fan then this series is meant for you!
