In Indian cinema, family drama is something that has been carried forward for ages. 'Potluck' is similar to that, a fresh, crisped, and entertaining story of a crazy family. The first episode might be a little crazy for you, but going forward the plot will definitely keep you glued to it. Being a family drama genre, the story still holds the emotional weightage and the modern culture drama in the series.
Director Rajshree Ojha has brilliantly lightened up the genre of family drama. The plot was beautifully drawn onscreen adding the pinch of acute and needful flavour to it. When one talks about family drama it is very much important to give value and detailing to every character, which the director has utterly done.
Moving forward, the dialogues in the series were quite simple and sophisticated yet they gave a lot of importance to the scene. Writers Ashwin Lakshmi Narayan, Bharat Misra, and Gaurav Lulla have beautifully penned the series with a lot of leisure and elegance.
The performances overall were absolutely fantastic. Talking about the cast, usually, a huge casting makes a mess, but in 'Potluck' you will definitely feel every character of the series. Shikha Talsania has bravely carried a young aspiring writer and a promising daughter's character throughout the series. Cyrus and Ira will surely make you feel like a real-life couple juggling with their kids and career. If you are a parent you will certainly understand and connect with their characters. Harman and Nidhi have also played their young, married, and carrier-focused characters smoothly. Coming to the parents part, Jatin Sial and Kitu Gidwani has also been promising throughout as classy yet peppy parents.
The family light-hearted drama is a simple story of a crazy family, which one should surely watch. The story will make you laugh at times and also will make cry out silently in pride.
