Netflix's IndianMatchmaking causes an uproar and ignites debate over controversial culture on castes, sexism, beauty standards and arranged marriages
The show "makes very clear how regressive Indian communities can be. Where sexism, casteism, and classism are a prevalent part of the process of finding a life partner," wrote Twitter user Maunika Gowardhan.
Thousands of Twitter and Instagram posts echo that view. "The show is simply holding a mirror to the ugly society we are a part of," Vishaka George, another Twitter user, wrote. Created by Oscar-nominated director Smriti Mundhra, the show focuses on matchmaker Taparia's visits to the homes of families who need her assistance. After hearing their demands, she presents résumés of prospective matches and then arranges for meetings.
"The two families have their reputation and many millions of dollars at stake. So the parents guide their children," Taparia says at one point in the show, referring to some of her wealthier clients.
