Hats-off
Extremely sweet like the Gujjus are, Metro park delivers some stellar performances and out of the box punches that are thoughtful and thought-provoking. Following the life of Patel family, first generation immigrants living in an area called Metro park in America. Kalpesh Patel (Ranvir Shorey) owns a convenience store and his wife Payal (Purbi Joshi) owns a hair salon while their kids own no rights to question their quirky Indian ways of living life.

Trying to cling hard to their Indian-ness especially when the definition of culture has become foggy and ambiguous, Kalpesh is all about smart and selective adaptation. From dragging down a picture of Jesus over Goddess Laxmi's photo(to help prevent robberies) to E-havan with a swanky Pundit, the show is brim-full of hilarious moments that reflect so well on the interesting melange of two diametrically opposite cultures - Indian and American. Impressive writing takes the center stage followed by great direction and production design.

The cast is successful at showcasing well developed, rich characters that hook you on from the beginning with their offbeat ways. The show is a great reminder of how culture doesn't define people, but people define culture. Metro Park is a piece of art only to be held in highest of regards.

Metro Park is an absolute hilarious take on the lives of NRIs living abroad. It revolves around Kalpesh Patel' s family residing in New Jersey, USA with all its imperfections, cons and above all eccentricities. Kalpesh Patel lives up to the stereotyped gujju living in USA who has a knack for business and believes in deploying different methods to fetch in good amount of money. This sort of leads the viewers to believe that Gujratis are always driven by economical needs and nothing else. The series focuses on all the lives associated to Kalpesh and brings in a lot of entertainment and light hearted comedy. His kids have little to no regards to their culture but try to follow it whenever the situation demands it. Kalpesh's wife's accent is somewhat irritating and again stereotypical which makes me wonder if the show will ever go beyond it's usual stereotypical portrayals or not. What makes this show endearing even though it's strongly embedded in the stereotypical portrayal of gujjus is the element of rootedness and nostalgia. The love for one's culture and how sometimes even being miles away from your country you lose yourself in moments of vulnerability wherein you are instant reminded of this tiny things that made you happy back in the days when you were still residing in your country. It's a fun watch. You can easily stream it on Eros Now and enjoy it. People who love to watch family dramas and enjoy unconventional plot might enjoy it!

Metro Park is an Eros Now Original web series. It is a comedy-drama series which focuses on the life of an Indian Gujrati family living in America. Kalpesh Patel with his wife and kids is living in Metro Park in New Jersey for almost 25 years. It is true that an Indian never forgets his culture no matter where he is, the series focuses on the same concept. It is a really entertaining series with lots of hilarious events which make it worth a watch. The actors played their character perfectly and made the series interesting. I really enjoyed each and every episode. It is now streaming on the Eros Now app, check out all the episode and have a glimpse on the life of Kalpesh Patel and his family.

Dobi reviewed Metro Park
Kalpesh and Payal Patel, the protagonists of this Eros Now Original, Metro Park, are two Gujaratis who presently live in New Jersey, home to the massive Indian diaspora. They own a convenience store, just being the quintessential 'desi' who embraces the 'vi-desi' yet stays wholesomely original from the heart. Metro Park is the tale of these quirky, entrepreneurial Indian class who wants to make it big and still don't want to forget where they came from. The story is funny yet banal. A family drama that's so fun and hilarious that it leaves you in splits.

Dustbin reviewed Metro Park
Kalpesh Patel has been in Metro Park, an Indian community in New Jersey, for 25 years. Take a peek into his typical Gujrati family and life, with a touch of humour and reality.
You can take a man out of India, but can never take India out of a man. Metro Park is the best example of this, no matter where you live or what you become, home will always be home. Kalpesh has been in US for so long, but at heart he is still an Indian, believing and following the culture.
Metro Park is a simple family drama with a high relatability quotient, that will remind you of your own family, and of your Gujrati friends and their family, if you have any.
Ranvir Shorey is spectacular in his character as Kalpesh Patel, portraying the typical Gujrati to perfection. He is a funny, sarcastic, business-oriented man, who is always trying to save money and make a better life for his family. He is perfectly matched by his on-screen wife Payal Patel, played by Purbi Joshi. Omi Vaidya is a breath of fresh air in the whole Gujju drama, a South Indian guy trying to cope up and tolerate his loud, boisterous yet friendly in-laws. Omi and Vega Tamotia’s characters could have been explored much better- they just seem there, without much contribution to the story.
Metro Park is a simplistic comedy, and it’s entertaining.
A typical yet refreshing Gujrati comedy that is definitely at least worth a watch.

Hilarious
Metro Park is an Indian comedy web series by Eros Now. It is a tale of a Gujrati family in Ameica and how they carry their Indianness with them. The show does not rely on any cultural stereotypes and is original. The cast is terrific! The show is not just funny it is pain-in-your-stomach-from-laughing funny. Ranvir Shorey deserves a special mention for nailing the Gujrati accent and being the life of the show. A complete family ride which can be enjoyed with your family. This show should be on your list.
