| Summary |
Taparia, who claims to be Mumbai's top matchmaker, travels frequently to New Jersey, New Delhi, and wherever else her services are required. At home in Mumbai, we see her husband helping her sift through a stack of 'biodata' - elaborate profiles of people who have registered with her, complete with head shots - mentally swiping left or right. But then, she also says at some point in the show that "In India, the marriages are between two families", and so the real test of compatibility in her mind is between the families - or more precisely, their social status. |
