Hey all,
Hope you guys are staying home and staying safe!
We've been home since early March and it feels like a different life where we used to go visit bookstores and restaurants and just be out in the world! Sigh.
So, what do you do when you find yourself at home with a little too much time on your hands? Well, you turn to the TV and to online streaming service providers for some fun content.
Without any further ado, here are some movies and series that we've been enjoying recently...
Panchayat on Amazon Prime Video is a hilarious and heartwarming story of a young Engineer, who finds himself in a tiny village in Uttar Pradesh as the Secretary of the local village Panchayat. The idiosyncrasies of the villagers, the challenges of adjusting to village life and just the sheer madness of a bureaucrat's life make for a hilarious viewing! Solid performances and several laugh-out-loud moments make this series a must-watch!
Breeders on Hotstar is a hilarious British sitcom about a couple and their various parenting misadventures! I don't want to say anything more, but just go and watch this show NOW! It is really, really funny!
Bhoot Part One- The Haunted Ship on Amazon Prime Video is a nicely done horror movie inspired by the very real cargo ship that had floated into Bombay's iconic Juhu beach in June-July 2012. Here, of course, the ship is haunted! The movie has a nice little mystery behind the haunting of the ship and some decent twists as well.
Shubh Mangal Zayada Saavdhan on Amazon Prime Video is, possibly, India's first mainstream, commercial gay love story. It has a great ensemble cast and very real small town India depictions. The movie is a bit of a slow-burn but has several laugh-out-loud moments. Definitely worth a watch.
Apart from these, my sister has been binge-ing old seasons of Grey's Anatomy! So, if you have some old favourites, now is the time to re-visit them and think back to the simpler "normal" times when we all had lives to lead and things to do outside of our homes! :)
Stay home and stay safe, fam!
