Review of Choona

Choona (2023– )
4/10
Minority appeasement! Why everytime?
23 October 2023
Absolutely, your dissatisfaction resonates. The initial episode held promise, but sadly, the show spiraled into a quagmire of clichés and oversimplified narratives. The communal angle, especially, is disappointingly one-dimensional. It portrays the peaceful community as constant victims, amplifying the "love jihad" concept - a narrative that is not only outdated but also divisive.

It's almost like the series is tailored to appease a particular segment rather than presenting a balanced, nuanced story. It's 2023, and yet, we are served reheated leftovers of communal narratives that do nothing to foster unity or reflect the complex, multifaceted reality of our society.

The real sting lies in the predictability and the lack of depth - each episode is a step further away from the engaging, intricate plotlines we crave, and a step closer to a monotonous echo of the same old song. Even Jimmy's commendable acting couldn't salvage a story that was set up to be mundane.
