This Pint-Sized Drama Has No Fizz
The New Indian Express Kochi
|September 13, 2025
Exactly a year after Ananya Panday's drowsy and cluttered riches-to-rags comedy-drama, Call Me Bae, comes Tamannaah Bhatia and Diana Penty's Do You Wanna Partner, a show about two best friends starting a beer brand.
There's an obvious visual and tonal similarity between the two Dharmatic Entertainment outings, with characters dressing less like real people and more like ambassadors of fashion brands.
So, even the emotions seem conveniently manufactured, carrying the flashy energy of an Instagram reel where everything is a fairytale. Both shows are, in a way, companion pieces, telling generic women-centric stories for the attention-deficit modern audience, with the screenplay following trends more than deepening character bonds.
