Sarabhai V/S Sarabhai

I remember being blown away while watching 'Sarabhai vs Sarabhai' when it first aired in 2004. It was unlike anything on Indian television at the time. A trailblazer, different from the usual saas-bahu dramas. Even in terms of sitcoms, It was completely different. Refreshing, intelligent, witty and funny. It was addictive to watch. I fell in love with it immediately, right from the first episode. The writing ruled and the terrific cast just elevated it to another level. The main characters trademark quirks, be it Indravardhan's pranks or Maya's elegance or Monisha's craziness or Rosesh's poetry or Sahil's frustration, elevate normal-mundane situations to insane and out-of-control situations. Add to it the bonkers supporting characters and their quirks, Dushyant's helpfulness (ahem!) or Madhu-kaka's slight deafness (ahem!ahem!) added a whole level of insanity to the already insane situation. Creating plenty of laughs and making it one of the best shows of Indian Television. It was the perfect cocktail of great writing, smart directing and brilliant acting. No other show has been able to achieve this level of perfection. I watched it again recently and could reconnect with it immediately. It is as relevant in 2019 as it was in 2004. It has aged like fine wine. A Cult Classic for the ages.

This is unarguably one of the best sitcoms in Indian Television. We have had some nice funny TV shows but none of them are so nicely scripted.

The show had a very interesting and unusual cast. Crisp direction, Well researched scripts, and High IQ humor made it so much more interesting than other comedy shows on Indian TV channels.

Maya and Monisha's (Elite vs middle class) sequences are such a delight! And the best thing in the show was Rosesh's KILLER Poetry. So irritating yet so enjoyable:)

Too bad that we do not have another season coming! I still hope a new season starts someday.

No comedy program can touch the level of Sarabhai. Awesome family comedy.

Sarabhai vs Sararbhai is probably the funniest Indian sitcom. There's no other show that even comes even close to it. The writing, the story and the characters are all just perfect. The gags and the jokes work very well as the characters are so nicely fleshed out and established.

It is the best TV show.

No matter how many times you watch it, you wanna watch it again. Excellent, Excellent and Excellent.

Why isn't there a 2nd season of it?

I request from the makers of Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai to launch a 2nd season and please with the same characters, no changes at all.

It can be compared to FRIENDS or HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER.

The Direction is awesome.

All the characters have done awesome acting and it looks as if everything is totally natural.

Hats off the the cast and crew.
