Congress MP Shashi Tharoor recently enjoyed a relaxing weekend by watching Netflix, specifically taking in the series “Ba***ds of Bollywood”, a recommendation from his sister. Tharoor shared his positive review, calling the series “#OTT GOLD!”
Directed by Aryan Khan and produced by Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment, the Netflix show has captured significant attention. Tharoor noted that while the series might take a moment to fully engage viewers, it ultimately “irresistibly hook[s]” them. He praised the sharp writing, fearless direction, and the satirical audacity of the show, describing it as a “genius, often hilarious, sometimes moving, and always unflinching look beyond the glamour.” He further commended Aryan Khan for delivering a brilliant masterpiece with his directorial debut.
Concluding his review, Tharoor extended a special message to Shah Rukh Khan, saying, “You must be so proud!!” ‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood’ features a star-studded cast and numerous celebrity cameos, offering a humorous glimpse behind the scenes of the film industry. However, the series has also faced controversy, with a former NCB officer suing the show and Netflix for defamation.
