Shreya (Tamanna) and Ritwik (Radhe) are very good.
That final episode, that sequence between Naseeruddin Shah and Sheeba Chaddha gave me goosebumps.
The entire cast Naseer Sahab, Sheeba Chaddha, Atul Kulkarni, Rajesh Tailang, Amit Mistry and Kunal Roy Kapoor are all awesome.
BUT, the real stars of this show are Shankar Ehsaan Loy and all musicians. Music is the soul of this series and these guys have absolutely rocked it ! The songs like Labb par aaye are on my constant loop.
The show makes absolutely no effort to strike a balance between the mediocrity in our music industry now as against the art it really is AND STILL COULD BE!
Cheers!

Brilliant writing, brilliant cinematography, brilliant acting of the ensemble cast. From Naseeruddin Shah, Atul Kulkarni to the fresh faces, Ritwik and Shreya, everyone nailed it. Thank you for bringing such shows.
And of course, the highlight of the show - the music. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy has created a masterpiece album. This is the content we need. This is the content we should support. Loved every bit of it. Watched it thrice already.

Believe me I was not at all interested in music before watching this but now I am totally in love with classical music. The series is no doubt a must watch one. Please take out some time from your busy lives and watch this. The songs are no doubt just mesmerizing and unexplainably beautiful. Along with that Ritwik' performance is just out of the world. Everyone's performance was so underrated and real. The emotions and values were portrayed perfectly. I would recommend it to everyone especially music lovers because this is a real one guys. Absolutely loved it!❤

A simple story line but very deeply heartfelt, specially as a music lover.
Credits to director and cast, specially the cast of Rathod family..
The role play concept of two main leads (as you have seen in trailer) to compose that song is a little bollywood/bizarre but except that brilliant..i loved it..

Even if you keep aside the riveting storyline, excellent casting, exquisite shooting locations, mesmerizing acting & direction of this series; this show is worth watching for it's melodious classical music alone.
Scene with raag malhar is such beautifully portrayed (sung, acted & shot) that I literally had goosebumps at the crux.
This is no ordinary web series. It is an intricately woven work of art.
P. S. Congratulations to Akshat Parikh for being part of something extraordinary. Your contribution must have been instrumental in creation & guaranteed success of this show (pun intended).

Wow dude what a beautiful webseries, very beautiful music, great acting. Each scene comes with a lovely message. Radhey's love for singing, his hard work was shown very well. Tamanna looks so gorgeous, her acting is also fantastic. It's hard to connect with people for the first time as new artists, but they did their 200% and put four moons on it. Naseeruddin sahab played a great role, his acting skills, expressions are the best as ever. I am grateful to my friend who told me to watch this. Go and watch it I'm sure you'll love it too.

It's really exciting to watch this fresh story .each actor is amazing.ritvik's performance is terrific Nasiruddin does not overshadow his or shreyas performance . The story line is gripping. But I Don't understand webseries like breathe into shadows is aplauded without any reason .and this saga is critised immensely this horrible I think audience must rate not the idiot critics community.

I want to start out this article by first saying that I loved mostly everything about Bandish Bandits by Amazon Prime, but you know by the title that there is an "except" coming after.
So I avoided the show for a long time after seeing the trailer, thinking it's just another masala love story with Rajasthan Gharanas music as a backdrop. Then I listened to one of the songs "Garaj" by Shankar Ehshan Loy, who I must say, have outdone themselves after a long time. The song tickled my curiosity and I gave in and watched it. And loved it.
Everything other than the acting by the leads Ritwik Bhowmik as Radhe and Shreya Chaudhary as Tamanna were perfect, which is fair since they are both freshers, but by no means bad. But Naseerudin Shah, Sheeba Chaddha, and Atul Kulkarni absolutely dominate the scenes they are in.
The Rajasthani Gharana music that I thought was a backdrop from the trailer, turned out to be much more than that. The show manages to dive deep into Indian classical music without having to bore the viewers. Now I want to take a moment to address this topic as in Indian cinema SO little attention is given to classical music. All the programs centered around classical music either air on Doordarshan or is a foreign documentary. The only classical music dedicated movies I remember are in black and white from the times of Manna Dey and the gang. I just want to thank the creators just for bringing classical music out in an entertaining form and to the actors and musicians who did an excellent job of justifying it.
Here's where it gets tricky though. This is the part where the "BUT" comes in. The show, in a desperate need to connect to the younger crowd, uses a lot of cuss words and some adult lingo that prevents it from being watched together in a family. The show has a perfect setting to be a family show: tradition, family issues, classical music, great actors, and history. But it ruins that by adding cursing and adult words. It seems to be a trend these days that if you don't have gaalis in your show/movie it's not cool, that people will not connect. Since everyone cusses these days, it looks more authentic. The truth is, it doesn't. Indian people grew up on generations of movies that never cussed on screen. Now, I understand if a character calls for foul language, if it fits the narrative then by all means cuss away. But if you watch the show you will know it was totally uncalled for.
It pissed me off that I couldn't show this golden content of a show to my mother. This affects a lot to the older generations like parents and grandparents, for whom there isn't much content available to begin with. I saw how this show could have been a bridge between two generations. Fusing the classical with the hip millennials. For older people to connect with the young, for them to sit with their children and watch something together. But at last, the showrunners do what they must to get more revenue/viewers.
In my opinion, I think they should totally do a PG / censored version. Win-win.

The sweet taste of disappointment! Season 2 of your favorite show was supposed to be the icing on the cake, but instead, it turned out to be a soggy, flavorless mess.
Let's face it, Season 1 was a game-changer. The plot was fresh, the intrigue was palpable, and the romance between the two lead actors was sizzling hot. It was like a perfectly crafted recipe that left you craving for more. But, Season 2? Well, it's like the chef got drunk, threw a bunch of random ingredients together, and hoped for the best.
The music, oh dear lord, the music! It was like someone took every clichéd Bollywood tune, threw them in a blender, and hit puree. The result? A mess of epic proportions. And don't even get me started on the acting. I mean, you've got powerhouses like Rajesh Tailang, Sheeba Chaddha, and Atul Kulkarni, but even they couldn't elevate this hot mess.
And what's up with the lead actress's new lips? I mean, I'm no expert, but it looks like she went under the knife and came out with a pair of lips that scream "I'm trying too hard!" Newsflash: it's okay to age, folks! You don't need to go under the knife to stay relevant. Her charm from Season 1 is precisely what made her so lovable, and now? It's like she's trying to be someone she's not.
Remember when we all thought this show was the most romantic thing since sliced bread? Yeah, those were the days. Season 2 took all that romance and intrigue and replaced it with...well, nothing. It's like the writers thought, "You know what? Let's just phone it in and hope no one notices."
Amazon, listen up! If you're planning on renewing this show, please, for the love of all things good, get a new director. Someone who actually cares about the story, the characters, and the audience. Because, right now, it feels like we're being taken for a ride, and not the good kind.
In conclusion, Season 2 was a monumental disappointment. It's like the show's creators took all our expectations, put them in a blender, and hit puree. Again. So, Amazon, if you want to save this show, get back to basics. Give us a compelling story, memorable characters, and music that doesn't make us want to rip our ears off. Anything less, and you might as well cancel it now.

The trailer might suggest this series to be a typical youth drama. However, it is way more than that. The acting is excellent, both from new generation actors like Rithwik Bhowmik and Shreya Choudhury and veteran maestros like Naseeruddin Shah, Sheeba Chaddha and Atul Kulkarni. Kunaal Roy Kapoor stands out as a comic relief and supporting actor. The whole cast impresses. The city of Jodhpur is felt quite authentically and is immersive with its aesthetic quality. While the series contains some cliches, they're carried well by the talent of its actors. The greater part of this series is about the struggles of maintaining Indian classical music, particularly with the austere strictures commanded by its masters. It is also about the trials of a relationship with ambitious partners. Most of all, it's a story about the strive for excellence.
The best part of the series is arguably its music. The whole album by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy is a wonder, particularly the classical edge. To wit, I've been writing this review while listening to the opening theme for the 30th time in loop and have listened to the whole album twice already.

Bandish Bandits" Season 2, while continuing the intriguing narrative and exploring the complexities of classical music and contemporary fusion, falls somewhat short when it comes to its music, especially in comparison to the first season.
In Season 1, the music played a central role in driving the plot, blending Hindustani classical with modern genres in a way that resonated deeply with both the characters and the audience. Songs like Taaron Ki Sheher and Mann Ke Manjeeré became iconic, with their raw, emotional depth and captivating musical arrangements. The music felt like an integral part of the story and the characters' evolution, offering a seamless blend of tradition and innovation.
Season 2, however, seems to lack that same spark. While it still has some catchy tracks, the overall musical experience feels less impactful and more repetitive. The urgency and emotional intensity that were so apparent in the first season's score seem diluted, making the music feel like a background element rather than a driving force. The character arcs, particularly of Radhe and Tamanna, feel less driven by the music, and as a result, the soundtrack doesn't hold the same emotional weight.
Additionally, some of the new compositions in Season 2 don't quite manage to strike the same chord with the audience. The balance between classical and contemporary influences, which was a strong suit in Season 1, feels more forced or conventional this time, lacking the innovation that made the first season's music stand out. While the show continues to explore important themes and the dramatic tension is strong, the music in Season 2 doesn't elevate the narrative in the same way as it did previously.
In conclusion, while "Bandish Bandits" Season 2 does maintain its storytelling quality, the music doesn't live up to the high standards set by its predecessor. The lack of memorable, deeply resonant compositions is a noticeable letdown for fans of the show's initial soundtrack.

After successful season 1, makers sank the ship.
Season 2 was full of cringe and bad acting. This was supposed to be a musical series but don't even remember any song from Season 2. The show picked up from episode 6 but finale was too messed up.
This season wasn't needed at all. Here what I'm guessing, Prime funded the show but makers were clueless about the story. Took so much time to decide what to make of it, so decided to drag same old Gharana thing until audience shut the tv off.
Now I know why it took so much time to release this show even when it was announced way early in 2024, because makers were not sure about this one.
Total crap.

War between two gharana, an idiom... Classical and Pop. A lovely sweet musical saga. Nasiruddin, Atul Kulkarni, Sheeba Chadda, Rajesh Tailang ,Amit Mistiri makes here strong some edges of their acting. Ritwik-Shreya Here the main Love Attraction. The series musically packed with Shankar-Ehsan-Loy. Hearing again Shankar Mahadevan, Pt.Ajay Chakravorty, Javed Ali with classical tribute a soothing experience.
