Bombay Begums, Netflix India’s six-part series that premiered on International Women’s Day.
In under six hours, we see a
spectrum of women pre-pubescent to menopausal, urban elite to underprivileged, big-city movers-and-shakers to small-town lasses, banker to bar dancer navigating their way through cut-throat Bombay.
A
plethora of issues loveless marriages and infidelity; infertility and surrogacy; boardroom politics and workplace sexual harassment; teenage heartbreaks and substance abuse; alternative sexualities and gender power plays are touched upon.
So much so that you wish there was less of it. And more of the less.
