Paurashpur stars a host of familiar faces, including Shilpa Shinde, Annu Kapoor, Milind Soman, Shaheer Sheikh and Flora Saini. But none of them can save this sad excuse for a period drama.
You cannot even cringe-watch ALTBalaji-ZEE5’s latest offering titled Paurashpur. I know this is a bold claim to make after having only watched a few episodes. But if you have consumed OTT titles in the past few months and then sit down to watch this Ekta Kapoor series, you will know exactly what I am talking about.
The series stars a host of familiar faces, including Shilpa Shinde, Annu Kapoor, Milind Soman, Shaheer Sheikh and Flora Saini. But none of them can save this sad excuse for a period drama. The script is abysmal, and the dialogues are just plain bad. I flinched hearing some of the lines Kapoor’s evil king Bhadra Pratap utters at one point while talking to his privates.
