Good bad girl-season 1
24 October 2022
Good bad girl is an adventure show directed by abhishek sengupta.

Samridhi dewan is an outstanding actor. The range she has portrayed here, uff! She has such expressive, intoxicating eyes add to that her wicked, bent smile. She was fabulous as maya. Viabhav raj gupta as the antagonist also does a wonderful job. He is a talented actor, has proven his worth with gullak, mai and now here. Sheeba chadda and gul panag are beautiful in their characters. Special mention to namrata sheth, she too has done a good job. The rest of the cast is good.

The writing has many points. Shoutout to the dark humour which has been pulled off brilliantly. I mean, people in india still don't get this concept. This show makes a meal out of breast cancer, handicapped people, sex and many more sensitive subjects. The jokes are uncomfortable and hilarious. The character of maya is written wonderfully. She is a highly, deeply flawed character but you still root for her for what she does. She is a lier, manipulative, insensitive, oppurtunistic, but samridhi has lent such a nuance to her that you still root for her.

The writing falters when it fails to establish other characters. No character has been given enough space to do their job. Just because they are good actors, they pull it off. Also, at the later episodes, when sahil is looking for a revenge, how he manages to take out so much info has not been dealt with properly. The screenplay is also at fault here it seems. It is engaging, hilarious. The dialogues are gold. Whenever zaina says "oh, bh**da" you will burst out laughing.

The background music, i.e retro theme which has been used is pure gold. The theme with the slow-mo sequences work wonderfully. The cinematography is very good.

This show deserves a chance for its dark comedy. I rate it 8.75 out of 10.
