A New Web Series on ZEE5 That Feels Familiar
Bakaiti is a new web series on ZEE5 that doesn’t rely on any adult or sensational content. It offers small moments of a house that seems to be quite realistic. Whether it is about Naina’s (Tanya Sharma) realisation of failing to meet her childhood ambitions due to her family’s reality, or it is about the cricket commentary of Bharat (Aditiya Shukla), every single detail offers a realistic feel to the audience.
Gunjan Saxena, Sheetal Kapoor, Neha Pawar and Tatsat Pandey have collectively brought up a story that not only offers absolute emotions but unlimited laughter to the audience. The dialogues and the everyday tension of a normal Indian house have been depicted perfectly without any exaggeration. And that further results in a raw and relatable tone, making it a perfect watch for people of every age group.
Cast That Mirror Real Lives
Sanjay (Rajesh Tailang) is the man of the family whose not only dialogue but even the silence says loudly. He is beautifully showing his struggles in managing between the ongoing financial situation and family requirements.
Sushma (Sheeba Chaddha) brings emotions to the series through her natural and powerful performance. She is trying to balance her financial situation and household requirements. We can see her making different efforts to keep her family together.
Naina (Tanya Sharma) is a teenager who has been hurt due to failure in her scholarship. She beautifully performed the role of the girl who has been stuck between her dreams and duty.
Bharat (Aditya Shukla) is the younger brother of Niana, and his naughtiness brings laughter to the audience.
Perfect Depiction of Regular Household Tasks
The best thing about Bakaiti is that the makers have given very keen care about every single detail that a normal middle-class household has. Whether it is about fighting over the water motor or it is about arguments on the division of study tables, or pranks over shared wardrobes, makers have tried to keep everything natural so that the audience could easily relate to it.
The humour in the Bakaiti series doesn’t rely on the hardcore jokes, but it relies on the different actions and dialogues of the middle-class family. The majority of the fun arises while watching ordinary people reacting to different things with extraordinary expressions. This kind of fun and laughter forces one to remember their memories and childhood fights.
Absolute Emotions
Bakaiti web series on ZEE5 is not just known for its absolute comedy but also has gained huge praise from the fans and critics for the way it serves emotions to the audience. Where the first half of the series brings up different jokes and moments bringing up absolute laughter, the second half serves absolute emotions that move your heart. A grief hits the family hard when Naina disappears from her home. The same increases tension in the story and lets the parents and their sister realise their regrets. Whether it is about Sanjay’s silence or it is about the clash of Naina’s dreams, everything brings out emotions that let the audience feel connected. The best thing about it is that these emotions are not being designed separately but are being woven into the entire story through different arguments and regrets.
Best Direction
Director Ameet Guptha has attempted to keep Bakaiti as natural as possible. The scenes included are quite well structured and clean, and bring up different things like split tears, a call from a colleague, sunlit terraces, and narrow corridors very naturally. The dialogues included in the series are quite natural and just feel like coming from real conversations. The series beautifully brings the perfect essence of Ghaziabad. Whether it is about the late-night lights or rooftop cricket, makers have tried to incorporate different elements naturally.
Bakaiti is for sure a rollercoaster ride of emotions and laughter that keeps the audience engaged throughout. Whether it is about its story, its cast, or its performances, cinematography, editing, music, and direction, makers have taken very keen care of everything to make the series follow naturally. It is one of the best new web series on ZEE5 that brings up the humour and drama of the daily life of a middle-class family.
