Four More Shots Please! Season 2 (web-series) review :
Damini, Anjana, Siddhi and Umang!
#FourBesties
Yup, they are back with a new season of Four More Shots Please - a desi version of 'Sex and the City' which found a fair amount of bouquets as well as brickbats in its first season. A mixed reaction, to put it bluntly!
Anyways, Season 2 has our ladies pick up (their lives) from where they left off and re-unite at their fave 'Truck Bar' for the mandatory tequilla shots and profane chatter highlighted with hastags!!
#FWordEverySentence. Oh yea!!
Sids (Maanvi Gagroo) gets over her breakup tamasha and attempts stand up comedy, Dee (Sayani Gupta) is chasing a real life scandal for her controversial novel, Anj (Kirti Kulhari) deals with a new misogynist boss while Mangs (Bani J) is supporting her depressed lesbian partner (Lisa Ray, gorgeous as ever) suffering from bipolar disorder.
#GirlGang
While the lead performances are sincere, it is Sayani and Kirti who stand out. Sayani Gupta is impressive once again as Dee. This chameleonistic actor can fit in to any role effortlessly. Kirti Kulhari pitches in yet another super fine act. Watch the scene where she gives back to her boss indulging in petty politics. Or a later episode where she resists her drunk hubby.
#Sheroes. Both of them.
On the other hand, the male cast comprising Milind Soman, Neil Bhoopalam and Prateik Babbar is one dimensional and strictly okey dokey.
#MenSuck. Offo!
Production values and other technical aspects are decent. The catchy title track is carried forward from season one. Ditto for the swear words se bhare dialogues.
More of a guilt pleasure watch, the new season of Four More Shots Please will appeal primarily to millennials and the SoBo crowd. Conservatives and NoBos, please stay far far away!!!
#LockdownTimepass
P.S. - Theres a twist at the end hinting at a season 3. Probably next year. That's ofcourse if these alcoholic promiscuous quadro are able to survive booze and casual sex during these Corona times. We hope!!!
