Siddharth's review of 'Heeramandi'
Siddharth shared his review of Bhansali's acclaimed series and expressed his admiration for the actors' performances. He wrote, "Grateful that we are living in the age of Sanjay Leela Bhansali saab,” he wrote, sharing a screen grab of Aditi dressed in a red anarkali kurta and holding a performance. He added, “A letter of love and freedom told in the confines of a bygone age with images that mesmerise the heart, music and verse that stir the soul. A work of art that would make K Asif saab proud.”
The 'Chittha' actor further congratulated the whole team. Aditi Rao Hydari essays the role of Bibbojaan, the elder daughter of Mallikajaan essayed by Manisha Koirala in the courtesan drama.
About Heeramandi
ABP Live review of the series reads as, "In the eight-part series, Bhansali makes an effort to give each of the parallel stories enough attention but it may get a little difficult for viewers to follow at times. But he tries to make up for it with the visual extravaganza on screen and scenes filled with his trademark opulent sets, ornate costumes, and over-the-top adaa. The main story of power struggle play between Mallika Jaan and Fareedan is what keeps you hooked to the screen until the second phase begins. And one has to give credit to Manisha Koirala and Sonakshi Sinha’s performance for holding the fort till another interesting twist pops up in the story."
