Review of Gullak

Gullak (2019– )
7/10
Good, not excellent anymore...because it has changed..

I would have given this season a rating of 9, however I downgraded for the following reasons.

..The downsides compared to Season 1:

Gullak is talking too much in Season 2. It is giving lectures, which are starkly weird compared to Season 1. Its boring and unnecessary 2. Gullak Season 2 is experimenting with the emergence of politically charged dialogues and lines...completely unnecessary and is starting to irritate. Each episode has lines which are targeting a certain section of the voting public or targeting a particular political party. If this continues, Gullak is going to just be another crassly foolish propagandist serial. E.g. the vannar Jai Shri Ram random scene...what were you trying to say, TVF? The Nehru + parody of 'freedom at midnight...TVF knows why they brought that in. Unnecessary. Doesn't add to your story. And several more which can be listed by anyone who is politically aware. This type of content detracts from your story and irritates discerning viewers who are looking for quality heartwarming content. You NO LONGER stand out among your competition, with such scenes.

When I watch Gullak, I do not want to PAY to watch a televised version of twitter or Ravish Kumar. (He features openly in an episode!!). The reason Gullak Season 1 was so much fun is that it is starkly different from the dark, negative, heavily political and propagandist serials. I hope TVF aren't planning on going there with Gullak. Would be boring..and mostly, disappointing.
