Taj Mahal 1989 Review

Taj Mahal 1989 indulges drama to take various forms, from apperance in romance to overally dramatic comedy.

This series unfolds in the city of Lucknow, where various couples of different ages share their love story and the bitter sweet moments that go into that journey. Akthar and Sarita who both teach different subjects in the same lucknow college, started their courtship during their own college days. After several years of being together they struggle keeping their flame from burning out. The next couple Sudhakar a philosophy gold medalist and Mumtaz a former sex worker, find their way through society's harsh judgemental words. Then there are the couple's from college who try to balance their career and love for each other hoping that they don't change on their path there.

Keeping romance as the main plot, the movie bring about important societal and political issues this country faces as sub plots.May it be threatening a voice or sex trafficking. Full of satire, this series with just seven episodes will leave you curious of where the paths they chose lead them. Moving along there is a definite charecter and relationship development witnessed, and it draws fine a line between when humour needs to be used and when a strong message must be delivered. The thing I loved the most was the the disciplined attention to details which ate rarely found in Netflix hindi original shows.Definitely a must stream.
