Bang Baaja Baaraat Review

Pawan(Ali Fazal) & Shahana (Angira Dhar) are to wed soon & their families have been invited to meet each other for the first time, except unlike any other 'Indian Pre-Marriage Ritual' the parents are only meeting, for the first time, 2~3 days before their marriage.The series cuts off of its original location, of that of the wedding hotel and moves out to show us how the protagonists met & let me not spoil it for you, because their medium of having met is like a mirror pointed in the faces of our generations.

The parents of each of the protagonists are pivotal. Their performances are spellbound(shouting out loud proving that they are experienced actors). Ayehsa Raza & Gajraj Rao play Ali's parents and tell a tale of the small town parents and their set norms and protocols while Rajit Kapoor & Shenaaz Patel play the parents of Angira Dhar and show us what it is like to have a merger via marriage between the small town and metropolitan (via their parents attitudes) folks.
