I had such high expectations from this series, but turned out to be so disappointing! It had such a boring storyline...like what was the purpose of this whole drama? Very predictable and shoved! This sense of patriotism seemed strained in the Tawaif of Heeramandi because of poor storytelling... nationalism was ignited out of nowhere in these women and it seemed like a pointless attempt at trying to make this story resolute BUT it turned out predictive and cringy... The story at first was so confusing, that I had to google here and there...After pinpointing the characters after 2 episodes, the audience can focus on the plot, but the plot is mundane with weak character development.
The jewelry, costumes, sets, cinematography, and the whole art setting were splendid which was very much expected from SLB but without a story, it's not worth it...because of the poor screenplay, somehow characters were detached from the plot, and they never reached their potential.
MANISHA KOIRALA was the only best thing in the series that could make me go through this, she had a strong delivery and a great presence throughout the series, Aditi and Sonakshi were good too but Sharmin!! Sharmin cannot act, there were no emotions in her acting, just plain boring. Other cast members gave their best...and finally how I wished Richa's role was more justified. This series could have been so much more...so much potential seems to be wasted.
