Bhansali has crafted magic :- heeramandi
Bhansali has crafted magic, damn good series with mind-blowing art choreography acting dialogue delivery, what a treat to watch another masterstroke by legends in a Historical Drama, It’s Magnificent, Magical & Masterpiece. Historical Sets, Stunning Costumes, Mind blowing performances & Epic history Direction. Screenplay could have been better. sometimes It’s stretched but worth watch.
All that glitters are not gold ” .It is devoid of narrative as it fails to develop the tale or the drama and everything seems to be mishandled and thrown into a box half baked.!! For sure one needs to have atleast a few cups of “coffee” or tea” to endure this 7.5 hours empty melodrama.!
The only good thing about this massively expensive webseries is Manisha Koirala who was a top notch performer and shines throughout the series and good screen presence by Aditi Rao Hydari & Sonakshi Sinha and rest none of the actors performances were note or the comebacks of many actors were completely ineffective.!!
Manisha Koirala has played an excellent screen play through Mallika Jaan . She played her character so well and her screen presence it self much more filling in this season .And we can feel the ease in her eyes through her acting skills . Aditi Rao Hydari once proved and kept the audience engaged through her beauty. It’s nice to see her with a rich character, with a soft heart, after the character she was given by Bhansali in Padmaavat.
Richa Chadha has also created
Richa Chadha has also created more impact to this series . Sonakshi Sinha never disappoints with her incredible Dahaad performance – she has nailed the villan role despite play an opposite role she was also a hot topic on talk. Sanjeeda Sheikh has maintained good screenplay throughtout the episodes
Sharmin Segal and Taha Shah Badussha led the much need love story for this season and they played the young age character. Sharmin, Bhansali’s niece, recieves the princess treatment here, but her voice and dialogue delivery are awful and didn’t work out well.Lets talk about the male cast Fardeen Khan, Shekhar Suman, and Adhyayan Suman had played role of nawabs and did justice to their roles.
If you’re a fan of fictitious dramas with a touch of Bollywood glam and epic history background,then Heeramandi is definitely worth a watch. Get ready for a journey to dive into the beauty and the drama of this bygone era as the Great epic Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali has a swing of it . Season 1 tells about the Mallikajaan’s story.

This event provides experience on drama, history, betrayal, and controversies, and the orgin and foundation of heeramandi.
