Gullak 4 review: Some shows transcend mere entertainment and become integral parts of our lives. This was the case with classic TV serials where the audience used to eagerly anticipate what Parvati would do next or what new upheaval Tulsi would face. TVF has brought back that era with shows like ‘Panchayat 3’ and now ‘Gullak 4’. We find ourselves invested in the love story of Sachiv Ji and Rinki, wondering about the latest antics of the MLA, the new troubles in the Mishra family, and the latest commotion from Bittu's mother.
TVF has opened the delightful Gullak of relationships for the fourth time. Although the writers and directors are new, the essence remains the same. This heartfelt story touches the heart. The series has only five episodes—just five. It leaves you wishing for more, thinking they should have made at least five more episodes.
Story
The story progresses like life itself, slowly and steadily, without any rush, imparting and explaining significant aspects along the way. A crisis hits the Mishra household, but Mishra Ji refuses to bribe the government official. Shanti Mishra, the mother, holds the family together firmly despite all difficulties. Annu's boss troubles him, but having failed to become an engineer, he has to continue his job as an MR. Aman aspires to be a novelist, but as Mishra Ji's younger son matures, distractions, especially towards girls, become inevitable. Unlike Annu, Aman faces typical adolescent challenges, and the story focuses on his journey into adulthood. Mistakes will be made, and it will be up to the parents to handle them. The series trailer already shows Mishra Ji delivering a stern slap to his younger son. Bittu's mother also keeps a vigilant eye, akin to CCTV surveillance. This season will again impart essential life lessons.
How is Gullak Season 4
This series flows like a gently meandering river, moving at its own pace. While you may be in a hurry, it will make you pause and say, "Take a moment, watch this." The Mishra family is not new to us. With three previous seasons, this family continues to win hearts. The series delicately portrays how a growing child can make mistakes and how these can be handled. If you grew up in a middle-class family, you will surely relate to this series. Once you start watching, you won't stop until it's over, and then you'll find yourself wishing it hadn't ended so soon. The series touches your heart, teaches, and educates in a way that goes straight to the core.
Acting
The Mishra family feels like our own, making it almost redundant to review their acting. Jameel Khan, as Mishra Ji, is a remarkable actor, excellently portraying a father's anger and helplessness. You'll see your own father in him. Geetanjali Kulkarni, as Shanti Mishra, gives such a perfect performance that you'll be reminded of your own mother. Vaibhav Raj Gupta, as the elder son Annu, does an excellent job portraying the pressures of work, the scolding from his boss, and the expectations from his family. Harsh Mayar, who plays Aman Mishra, carries most of the weight this season as the story revolves around him. His performance will remind you of your own teenage years. Sunita Rajwar, as Bittu's mother, steals the show again. Her presence adds the perfect touch to the series, making it even more relatable.
Direction and Writing
The biggest strengths of any TVF series are its writing and direction, and this one is no exception. Vidit Tripathi penned the script, and Shreyansh Pandey directed it. Shreyansh, also the creator of this season, has done an excellent job. He knows precisely how to touch the audience's pulse and to what extent. His grasp of each scene is evident, and the storytelling is impressive. This season doesn't fall short compared to the previous ones. Once again, they've shown that good stories need just that—a good story, not a big budget, expensive clothes, or big superstars.
There is no reason not to watch this series and a thousand reasons to dive right in.
