PERMANENT ROOMMATES SEASON 3 is the story of a couple going through a crisis. Mikesh Chaudhary (Sumeet Vyas) and Tanya Nagpal (Nidhi Singh) stay together as ‘permanent roommates’ in Mumbai. Life is going well until Tanya learns that her colleague Shraddha (Sapna Bhatt) is off to Germany. Tanya realizes that she’s bored of her monotonous life in India and wants to move abroad. Mikesh, however, is content with his life in India. He fails to see Tanya’s point and she gets enraged. He tries an idea suggested by Tanya’s father Brijmohan (Shishir Sharma). But it backfires and it further convinces Tanya that she needs to go to foreign land. Mikesh and Tanya begin the process. On top of it, Mikesh’s mother Lata (Sheeba Chadha) comes to stay with them. Lata, who is still grieving due to the demise of her husband Mohan (Darshan Jariwala), meets widower Venkat (Sachin Pilgaonkar) and they strike a friendship. What happens next forms the rest of the series.
Vaibhav Suman and Shreya Srivastava’s story is relatable and modern. Vaibhav Suman and Shreya Srivastava’s screenplay is uncomplicated and replete with very interesting and cute moments. The writers deserve brownie points as even the most ordinary moments have some sort of laughter or drama in them. Vaibhav Suman and Shreya Srivastava’s dialogues are one of the highpoints. The one-liners bring the house down and it’s after a long time that viewers will get to see such dialogues in a show.
Shreyansh Pandey’s direction is terrific. He had a lot of challenge in hand since the PERMANENT ROOMMATES series has a huge recall value. For many Indians, it was probably the first web series that they saw in their lives. The characters of Mikesh and Tanya are etched in their minds. The director perfectly understands the world of this series and takes it forward. He adds lots of entertainment with several scenes bringing the house down. In the last two episodes, he switches gears and adds teary-eyed moments. But the common factor in funny and emotional sequences are that they are all straight out of life. Another USP of the show is that unlike the trend nowadays of having 8-10 episodes of 40-50 minutes each, PERMANENT ROOMMATES SEASON 3 is only 5 episodes long. It’s total run time is less than 3 hours.
On the flipside, a few developments are difficult to digest. The parents of Tanya get a raw deal. Tanya getting friendly with Pranav (Ambrish Verma) seems unconvincing especially after Mikesh warned her about him. The last scene is cute but some might have reservations about it.
Speaking of performances, Sumeet Vyas rocks the show. This was his breakout role and yet again, he gets into the skin of the character flawlessly. Nidhi Singh is outstanding. She nails in the scenes where she has to get angry. However, watch out for her in the last two episodes. Sheeba Chadha is adorable and adds a lot to the season. Deepak Kumar Mishra (Purushottam) is the soul of the show. His mere presence will make viewers laugh. Shishir Sharma leaves a mark. Ayesha Raza Mishra (Ila) is hardly there. Sachin Pilgaonkar is lovely. Ambrish Verma puts up a confident act. Anandeshwar Dwivedi (Lleo) is too funny.
The songs are forgettable. But Rohan Rohan’s background score is well-woven into the narrative. Nikhil Arolkar’s cinematography is neat. Sheena Saini’s production design is realistic. Kevin Mathews’ costumes are glamorous but don’t look out of place. Gourav Gopal Jha’s editing is sharp.
On the whole, PERMANENT ROOMMATES SEASON 3 fulfills all expectations and turns out to be an extremely funny and moving season. Thanks to the tremendous recall value and popularity of the series, this new season can emerge as one of the most watched shows of 2023.
