Really loved this series. Season 1 came in 2023, was eager for season 2. 3 years on, no update abt it. Why don't Netflix focus on such series that has potential rather than crappy movies they make. Kaala Paani is another good series that got shelved. Wont trust Netflix anymore
Love this series ❤️
I found this OTT app which provides a bundle for ₹2099 for 1 year, will I get to everything as this plan promised??
Started watching Hunkaar on Hotstar and noticed this. Bro Madhya Pradesh ki spelling nahi likhi jaa rahi thik se.
Have just started the show so won't say anything about the rest of it, but this doesn't give a very good first impression.
Had some expectations from Chumbak , mainly because of the cast and the people behind it. Trailer felt pretty average, but I thought maybe they were deliberately not giving much away.
After watching it, kinda disappointed.
The biggest issue for me was that some of the comedy just felt forced. 😭
It’s not bad or anything. A few good laughs, decent performances, and definitely a one-time watch. But with this cast, it feels like a missed opportunity. Some characters and ideas had so much potential, but they just… stayed potential.
And honestly, I think I’ve started falling for the Netflix + good cast = must be good trap too often. 😭 The banner and the cast can get you to click, but they can’t carry the whole thing if the writing and comedy aren’t landing.
Had better expectation from the makers of sarabhai and khichdi

The film is enjoyable, no questions about that. And it would easily cross 300-400 cr at box office, super hit.
But overall, there is absolutely no story, absolutely Nothing.
The same events from the second part are reignited with a new character, Jaideep. Much like Part 2, it becomes a court drama with very little court, and with a new twist. And that twist is again essentially: “Vijay Salgaonkar has taken care of it in advance.”
I would say watch it, or better, wait for the OTT release.
For me, this is the weakest of the three movies. Absolutely nothing happens in terms of story.
For a 150-minute movie, you would expect at least 30 minutes of actual new content. This movie has nothing story-wise. Yet, thanks to brilliant direction, it never feels boring.
That’s the strange thing about it: the movie has nothing, but it is still enjoyable.
The Malayalam one had an actual story. This one feels more like the makers found a way to stretch the same story one more time.
I don't know if it has ever happened anywhere that the remake writers wrote something completely different than the original writers, and not just that, the remake makers actually made a better movie than the original.
I liked the Malayalam one as well, but Hindi is definitely better.
And overall isn't it such a cool and fun thing that we get to see two totally different versions of continuation of a same story.
For a show literally named Chumbak, which means magnet, it completely defies physics by pushing away anyone with working ears in the first two minutes.
The worst part of the whole series isn't even the script, it's the massive scam on the poster. You see names like Neena Gupta, Sumeet Vyas, Deven Bhojani, and Sumeet Raghavan, along with the creators of Sarabhai vs Sarabhai and Khichdi, so you naturally expect a smart and funny sitcom.
It was a complete cringe fest at the highest level.
People will praise TMKOC after watching Chumbak.
How beautifully they showcased Indian middle class family just love it!!!!!
Thought I won't renew SonyLiv and the package last expired in Feb 2026.
A few good series (few and far in between) nothing much that me and my family watch.
Paid 399 for the Asian games but should've taken full year.
Asian Games aside good football roster too.
UEFA champions League (Liverpool is my team), then all India football internationals like the one with Brazil and Uruguay, and ISL. All these European Friendlies and then the FA Cup too.
Not too much into bilateral series but India's tour of NZ and in general watching SENA tours is good value for money too.
Overall can't ignore. Will take the full year subscription I guess.
September: what wake my up when September ends
November: November rain
October: this movie
btw do you know it was termed "boring and confusing" at that time.
When I originally signed up for ZEE5's top-tier plan (Premium / 4K All Access), the entire selling point was an uninterrupted, ad-free experience. Now, they've quietly slipped in "limited ads" even on paid premium accounts.
Getting hit with pre-roll and mid-roll ads during movies and series after paying for an annual top-tier subscription is absurd. If budget or bundled partner tiers have ads to subsidize costs, fine. But there should be at least one clear, dedicated plan that guarantees zero ads.
What is the point of paying for a premium subscription if we're treated like free-tier users with a timer? OTT platforms in India seem to be copying the worst cable TV habits—charging upfront for the connection and then running commercials anyway.
Is anyone else seeing ads creep up on their 4K/annual plans? Are people actually renewing under these terms, or is it time to drop the platform entirely?
And this was the saddest scene in the whole series
If you are into documentaries, this is the one to watch. A very recent one. Makes your blood boil and leaves you angry and shocked even after it ends.
I am not ragebaiting ..I get boared easily and I just don't know how ppl spend hundreds of hours into binge watching series...due to my work and other prsnl things I avoided spending time on ott cuz I've missed almost every web series in its peak time and haven't watched any of them ...be it sacred games , panchayat, mirzapur , Breaking bad or anything u name ...few I've watched is kota factory, squid game and farzi 😶🥲 that's it ...
So I thought let's give it a chance to watch something so I found scam 1992 and it also had very high rating so yeah...
Also suggest me some of best ones (BB is still too big for me atleast 😭)..
Any platform..
Thank you
It is a one time watch, but a good one. Better to explain this movie as "Consequences of having soft boundaries"
Pooja is ambitious and just trying to build her life, but like so many women, she tries to handle awkward situations politely and quietly in private without making a scene.
>!The tragic part is seeing how that politeness gets completely twisted into hope by a guy who thinks he’s playing the ultimate "provider", the Romeo and entitled to take loans for an unsolicited support, beyond his means. !<
Remember the 370 is biryani episode. yes, so this Romeo is a bit sophisticated than that, but treat love like a transaction where putting in effort means he owed a response which is as per his favorable terms.
>!What makes it even worse is!< the enabler friend / the hype man >!who constantly fuels his delusions instead of giving him a simple reality check, and that silent look of regret on the mother’s face at the end when everything falls apart.!<
Almost every girl can relate to this. Guys who won't stop messaging in your DMs until they get blocked, to people who refuse to take a hint until a huge mess happens.
If you’ve ever been confused about boundaries, this movie is a must-watch.
No comes in many forms, but no is always no.
