Little Things (2016– ) User Reviews

Wow, Lovely

[faisalfaves · 9/10 · 5 October 2018]

I remember when I first watched this on YouTube, It felt amazing. Very Simple, yes I mean after watching the first season everything around me was different. We complicate things too much. Please just enjoy this life we have only this one, we don't have any other option. Why we fight, we are always rude to everybody around us, why? We are just good with only those who we want us to be in our life for some reasons, We are so selfish, I realized it after watching the first season. And after that day I started changing myself. Just love everyone, It's OK if you disagree with someone for just some reasons, but this doesn't means that we just start disliking someone because they think differently than us. Please Be the Change.

Now watching the Season 2, It's really great. Thanks Netflix and Dice Media. I started liking the simple Series's. Definitely Recommended!

Season 3 review

[ajinthomas-38977 · 9/10 · 15 November 2019]

Little things! I'm using an exclamation mark because this show is not a show it's a feeling now. The first few minutes shook me to core and I was calling my friend to ensure what I'm seeing is not true, this lines can tell you what this show has became. In the world were the shows are getting dragged little things is a masterpiece where each and every storyline is made with love, logic and with perfect balance of the ingredients in it. There are alot of things you can relate with and there are alot of things that will make you say aww or that line went straight threw my lines. The best thing about this season was the dialogues all the dialogues like "No Matter what this stays", "I'm your home Dhruv", "I'm not people Dhruv", "Felt like hearing you" are the best examples of the great work done on writing dialogues. The story line is really good and you will learn alot of new things here like the end where things are showcased in a balanced way so everyone can relate and feel the emotions very well. Similarly parallel storylines in two episodes was a new thing I saw in this world. Kavya and Dhruv are couple goals now and undoubtedly this is a masterpiece and I hope this goes like this without any drags and at the end I can say no matter what this show should stay.

Beautifully Series

[lokeshnautiyal · 8/10 · 10 November 2019]

Very cute and simple Seems so realistic with good acting

This is real !!!

[theanoopk · 10/10 · 12 March 2019]

Story and narration is really about little things. A person in relationship can relate very much. Most of sit-com are about comedy but this one is really close to real life. I really like the chemistry between two people and how they pull the screenplay. This is something no one should miss.

A Rare Slice-of-Life Gem About Self-Discovery !!!

[cs_rahul_prasad · 10/10 · 19 October 2021]

Little Things, back for its fourth season, is a sweet show about mostly sweet people living a very real and honest life for the most part. It's very rare that love stories on screen don't mean exaggerated larger-than-life love, fighting or sex, because real life love stories exist somewhere between living through the mundane, real love stories exist mostly after Raj has found and now gotten together with Simran.

In India, a lot of our stories are about how the boy gets the girl, but Little Things is about what happens when boy and girl have been together for years and actually seen real life together.

Little Things is perhaps one of the best Hindi shows for a lot of reasons. The universe is so lived in and real and it stays so true to its name that the problems and the true happiness do lie in the little things.

This inward looking mini plot in this season has all its major characters and actors returning, Dhruv Sehgal as Dhruv, Mithila Palkar as Kavya Kulkarni, Rishi Deshpande as Satish Kulkarni and Navni Parihar as Ila Kulkarni. Special shoutout to Mithila for having, as always, understood the soul of this character to the point of perfection. She breathes such real breath into middle-class Kavya from Nagpur, bright spunky and out to fulfil her ambitions, that it almost feels as if I'm just watching one of my friends live their everyday life. Dhruv Sehgal, too, is wonderful as the Finland-returned almost NRI in this season, his intellectual academic idealism infectious and relatable for anyone who expects more from their homeland than just the disappointing bare minimum.

This season has Dhruv, returned from Finland to work as a bright PhD project lead in Mumbai, and Kavya, onto exciting new corporate opportunities in Mumbai, reuniting in the beautiful Kerala and then making their way to Mumbai, where they live together. The story meanders through contrasting professional experiences the two have and yet, the very similarly mundane disappointments they face. Two young people, figuring out who they are and what they want not only from each other but also from life, as marriage, money and society loom in the background. Through Dhruv we learn the pain of ideals and through Kavya the pain of ambition, and through both, in this season, we learn a lot about not getting flustered in the weak moments but instead to see them, recognise them and somehow find the strength to keep going.

One is shown the beauty of not only their domestic world with craft but also the beauty of this world, our world in general, amidst all the chaos, a gentle reminder that if all is not well right now, eventually it will be. The music score is beautiful, reminiscent strongly of Tajdar Junaid in the right places and the song of a happy gondola ride in Italy in others, making its presence felt but not jarringly.

Besides the wonderful understated and almost muted writing and acting that is note worthy, the direction too is easy on the eyes.

As a note to end on, for its penultimate season, Little Things probably got it right, leaving enough to the imagination while answering almost all pertinent questions and Little Things will be missed by me, who has watched all the four seasons with equal parts a smile on my face and a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart.

Meritorious!

[SoumikBanerjee1996 · 8/10 · 24 May 2020]

The efficacy of simplicity here is discernible! In the midst of sugarcoated representation of relationships in various films and dramas; this comes as a refreshing change. It challenges the norm of the majority of stories involving couples and showcases a more honest picture in the same regards. Story revolves around Dhruv & Kavya who represents the bulk of relationships in the current day & age society. Every tids and bits in a relation is profoundly portrayed through different stories and incidents. There's Drama, Love, Comedy, Arguments, Ignorance, Jealousy, you just name it and you will have it here. This show consists three seasons and they are distinctive in nature. First one goes on a fun, lightweight ride that heavily depends on comedic relief and character traits. Second season, my favorite one; indulges in maturity, understandings and deeper nunances but at the same time keeping the balance between fun and seriousness on check. Whereas the third season entirely shifts toward the concering aspects of the accord. Which loses the eccentricities of the main core theme. In short, it's a wholesome package that duly delivers on the prospects of the premise and the alluring performances surely melt your heart every now and then. Greatly written, well directed and most of all befittingly acted!

It's the little things in the show that you can relate to !!

Perfect Tale of Every Relationship

[manishshanbhag · 8/10 · 9 August 2020]

Life is unpredictable and so is Love. You cannot just say I love You and move on. There is a bigger responsibility which comes with those three magic words. Dhruv and Kavya are in a live-in relationship and the series is shot from their glasses. Dhruv Sehgal is the mind behind the story, and you can see how beautifully the whole emotion is pictured throughout the season. There love, conflicts, fun, happy place debate, the career vs relationship balance, and so on. The series is truly about the Little Things of life, love, and career, and everything that makes it complete.

Absolutely awesome!

[hazarabacha · 10/10 · 7 April 2019]

A great series. I could relate to most of the episodes! Please keep the series going!

Where's this show headed?

[Terri344 · 6/10 · 20 February 2020]

This series only flaw is that it doesn't actually have a storyline. It's not headed anywhere. It has a mundane everyday activities but you are not looking forward for anything special. No twist , no drama. The acting is fantastic!! I really liked the pair but since there's no story I haven't been able to watch it !!

Simplicity

[rishab-91757 · 9/10 · 6 October 2018]

Liked it because of simplicity in story. The story also looks authentic. No unnecessary drama.

Simple..relatable and sometimes boring

[damodar-57971 · 6/10 · 15 October 2018]

I started watching liytle things 2 coz i liked first one which was pleasant, relatable and simple...season 2 continues on path however it turn out boring sometimes and emotions looks forced rather than natural...overall keeps you happy👍🏻

Stopped watching halfway through the first episode

[Soul14960 · 1/10 · 23 June 2020]

Absolute trash tier show. Cringe acting, everything about it seemed off. Netflix India proves that it's just as bad as Netflix burger land.

Lovely Web Series

[nahid-rajbd · 10/10 · 26 February 2018]

The best thing abut this series is that everything looks so simple and genuine that everyone can relate their story, there's nothing like something unoriginal. Although it doesn't have something so thrilling or adventurous but being simple makes t this series very unique and different from all other web series.

Alluring story.

[jhonsmith-42193 · 9/10 · 6 October 2018]

This series will extract the hidden laughter and smile which you manage to always hold back and will relate to you on so many levels. I find it quite fascinating as director sits in the back seat and takes control of the story in a way he wants viewers to see. Yes there are the some usual clichés and also not so prospective acting that you expect but these both will surely make up of it by their ardor and you would find yourself hooked on to the series and of course it was their prerogative to get season 2 and to be honest I was surprised and shocked with the development from the two season and the inexplicable episodes. It isn't an intriguing thriller that will keep you guessing, no it is rather a story which will make you start reminiscing your good 'ol days. Watch it and you would experience an different feeling all together.

Pure love

[nikree · 10/10 · 13 June 2021]

Jus lovely, right from the first season they've kept the bars high and keep delivering on it.

I wondered after every season that- This_Is_It they couldn't stretch it any further. But to my amazement, it is still one of the most recommended one on my list.

A sweet little adorable show. (Better than F. R. I. E. N. D. S. I'll say).

A lovely experience which will stay with you forever.!!!!

[harishchityala-39678 · 10/10 · 13 October 2018]

I loved the series so much that I completed both the seasons in 2 days and it was just like wow . Dhruv sehgal (momo) and mithila palkar (kavu) they both had done a Greta job . The portrayal of the series was very beautiful it shows you the ups and downs the joys and sorrows in a relationship and how they handle it. It's just great.!!! Go and just watch it.!!!!

Best Romantic Series

[Zorawar_143 · 10/10 · 5 August 2020]

Season 1 : best chemistry of couple with each other. Best part of the first season is you can watch any one part like you can watch 2nd part first and then you watch 1st part, it not effect on story line. And basic concept is totally understandable. Their is no bollywood drama. It's cover all small thing between couple. And this web series is so realistic. Best part is their is no imaginary drama like bollywood. If you are in relationship or married you should watch this at list once. That will positive infect on you understanding.

Little Things..Big Deal!

[deepak-nanjundaiah · 9/10 · 25 October 2018]

Wasn't aware of this series till some weeks back as just stumbled upon watching an episode. In fact I got to know this is Season#2 for this matter just before posting this review! Subtle script made with some amazing performances by the lead roles. One can imagine and second his thoughts to what unfolds in each episode but yet can be amazed by the fact that how these little things make such an impact on our lives without any big bang! Each episode is nicely written with a them around it and the performances are so well knit that you completely immerse in to their lives and how?! The chemistry b/w Mithila and Dhruv is unbelievably realistic and they have complement each others presence in every shot so comfortingly.

Stretched it long enough

[xdxqhb · 6/10 · 17 October 2021]

Right into the first episode had a feeling that these washed clothes have rinsed enough. Season 3 was the best going back to the roots quality time with parents revisiting older times you cannot follow it up with a better one. Having said that the whole series is coming of age for any new relationships in current decade.

Another classic real life series from Netflix

[shahid_imdb · 8/10 · 9 October 2018]

What I like the most about this one from Netflix/Dice Media is the story is simple and the acting is simple but the flow and the interaction of the main characters and their day-to-day gestures makes in an awesome daily series to watch. Its a light hearted drama with two seasons out so far. Waiting for more of this one.

Fell short of expectations

[amolsaurabh · 6/10 · 21 October 2021]

Little things was about, as name says, little things in a couple life. Where to eat? What to watch ? Whom to meet? It is about the banter. That was the fun. Something I can relate to and fascinated about the stories in season 1. They kept it very light and entertaining.

Since they moved the show to Netflix,the show became fixated on career, future of the relationship, families. Why ? I started to hate the lead character of Dhruv as he is becomes self-obsessed and annoying in later seasons. This is not something I was looking for.

Still, great try towards Indian modern relationships.

Crappy series

[sonalin-10905 · 2/10 · 13 February 2020]

This is the dumbest s***t I have ever watched. Looks like writer/director is so much obsessed with western culture that he/she tried to force all western things (Liverpool, bacon, waffles, Sriracha and what not) randomly into the series without any story.. Nothing original about it, just copy paste. Well, there are 2 types of English accents people use in India. 'Normal' and 'I can talk English'.. Girl is using the latter and looks more pretentious than natural.. Good for teenagers who want to be high on romantic day-dreaming and others will understand how to achieve couple goals as you age. This series doesn't depict couple goals at all.. It's just kiddish talk..

not perfect but it's sweet followup

[Nish3012 · 8/10 · 8 October 2018]

Little things season 2 opens on a similar fashion as season 1. It brings out the big things which can ruin things in their relationship and also the little things which saves it. We see dhruv and kavya in their happy place and how their past connection have changed over the years. Be it their friends, colleagues or family even for that matter.

Dhruv has changed his opinion on many things and doesn't agree with his childhood friend and how kavya make him understand the importance of being there for his friend is one of best implied scene that we are not in a perfect world and it's not necessary to agree with your friendjuts because you knew each other so well in the past.

Be it the scene between dhruv and kavya's mother or the scene between kavya and her subordinate who was once her colleague captures how status quo changes for good and for bad. The things that they love to do with each other have taken a back seat because of the responsibilities and circumstances and how it affects their relationship is all that makeups the season 2 of this sweet season. It explores the imperfections in people and how as a couple they understand each other. The small conflicts which eventually lead to a fight and how they remediate it is the core of the story.

Though it is a sweet season but it also has some flaws. Some of the episode just feel a little stretched but both mithila and dhruv have given a superb performance. To conclude watch it for performance and some of the inner plots of the story and as like dhruv says "it's not perfect but it's us".

Superb;

[shashankpatel-37369 · 8/10 · 13 December 2019]

One love story which pretty much revolves around real life, no heroic stuff and ground level facts. Especially the end of each season is just so unconventional and so real. Just watch it ....
