IRL: In Real Love (2023– ) User Reviews

Bad show

[pamasivakumaran · 1/10 · 7 April 2023]

Not a good show. I wasted my time. I wanted to see the end. It does not show real connections. It gives a wrong picture of real connection. Online people are coming to explore. They are not given fair chances. It is kind of a control situation. A couple went for a movie night. This date has been watching by another person. It is so creepy. Another thing, 3 people ( either 2 boys and one girl or 2 girls and 1 boy) are going for date to find connection. It is horrible.

I cannot imagine Netflix took this bad film. It does not make sense.

First, it is Indian film and I had a good feelings. It is not real love.

Lots of controversy. I want to give 0 star. Sorry.

Cringe Fest

[asingh-65802 · 1/10 · 10 April 2023]

I had to turn off half way through the first episode as I couldn't torture myself further by watching this cringe fest. It is so embarrassing to watch these freshys try sooooo hard to be as Western as possible and the accents are so unbearable.

Disappointing Show about Fake Love

[couch-potato-never-lies · 1/10 · 12 April 2023]

When I saw the trailer of IRL, my expectation grew as I thought this might be having similar elements of the shows like 'The Circle' or 'Love is Blind', where the contestants establish a relationship based on feelings and trust.

Since its based out of India, i thought this show will do better than them and Boy oh boy this show is such a disappointment. First of all, there is no such concept of real love in the show. Contestants stay in a room which is decorated to reflect them and they have an app to chat, but it looks fake as ever.

The contestants meetup so many people to date and no one is bothered to ask anything practical like 'what do you do for living or do you have a job'. Instead they straight-away ask some lame questions like 'what kind of connection are you looking for?' or 'which is your fav. Book' or make sex jokes. Also, all the people are so shallow in their thoughts and go for physical looks only. Conversations are boring as they are mostly brain dead or sex jokes and there is no meaningful love.

Finally the fakeness and the boring scenes will make you sleep.. If you are looking for a show where you want to remove your brain and bore you to sleep this is it!!

A MASSIVE WASTE OF TIME.

[Waaka1 · 1/10 · 15 April 2023]

I clicked on the show to see a poor attempt at a remake of some of the western show like Too hot to handle, but it's a pity that it couldn't even achieve that. It's just a cringe fest. Every second on this show feels like a waste of your time. Please don't bother clicking on it, it's not even binge worthy.

The contestants are some failing actors who try to make this show intresting, bit alas the concept of the show is so pathetic that neither the actors nor the hosts could save it. I don't understand how producers put their noney on garbage shows like this one. This is a very inaccurate representation of dating scenario in India.

Thumbs Down - NOT Real Love

[PalmBeachG · 1/10 · 23 April 2023]

One of the worse shows have watched in a long time. To be fair, I never give a review without watching the whole series so I suffered through it since I started it. My one star is actually for the few romantic scenery shots of architecture such as the Taj Mahal and other lit scenes that were shown at night. Otherwise I would have given it a Zero except for the smile of the musician. But not worth watching for one cute smile.

First, there were no subtitles and I appreciate that it was in English, however, the accents were so bad that I could barely understand the show. When the participants slowed down their speech at a normal level I could understand the accent however when they started to talk way to fast, I was unable to understand a word. I had to stop the screen, go back over and over again, and had no patience for that. Finally gave up; just let it run without understanding half of it.

So many of these relationships seem so fake; the participants can't really be like this can they? A few of the guys seemed a little more sincere than the girls who were so fake - I have no idea, but definitely something is definitely wrong.

Wouldn't recommend.

So underrated

[bhumikachauhan-59361 · 10/10 · 7 April 2023]

Honestly speaking this is just not a show to binge watch this was something that was for real. I mean no drama total real . The way it happens in real life , it says that all. My favorite take aways from the show is of vidushi (her lags inspired me the need of being involved and explore that she havn't did as much & her walls are totally close to me ) another one is ananya (her story of ; when will I get back love ? I am tired of just giving it and being in a space oh sry girl I will think - that just have hit me ) and then it's rohan and shimona - I have no wrds fr them just love u loads but rohan more .

This show was decent.. can't believe the hate!

British born and bred, and I've seen a few dating shows in my life (starting with Cilla Black and Blind Date back in the day!) and listen, I don't care what anyone says - this show was entertaining.

I was laughing throughout and forming my opinions about what was going on.

The ending wasn't completely a forgone conclusion and I was pleasantly surprised by it.

I loved some characters, disliked others, really enjoyed the scenic views of India, and felt kinda proud of the next generation.

Chirag, Vidushi and Sifat were great! As were some of the others!

Production team did a great job and looks like a lot of effort went into this, esp. The dates, and the atmosphere, music etc.

Looking forward to the next series!!
