Sidehero Review

Sidehero is an Indian comedy web series by Eros Now. It follows the journey of a failed actor and his struggles. Kunaal Roy Kapoor is the hear and soul of the show. An intriguing premise of a pot-bellied Kapoor trying to make his way in Bollywood sets up a good comedic path for the show but does not capitalize on it. Sidehero relies on situational comedy and is executed brilliantly. Apart from Kunaal, Gauahar Khan and Konkona Sen Sharma excel in the show. The biggest demerit of the show is that it is a one man show and does not utilize the rest of the cast. Because of that, the writing seems one dimensional with long duration leading to awkward moments which should have been edited out. It is a feel good show which you can watch without much expectations.
