Flop Show

In the present day dominated by saas-bahu serials, series like this one make us wonder what could have been if the trend would have never started. It is a satire on the everyday lives of Indians at its period of release which is still applicable to the present day 25 years later.

This series shows that comedy is possible without being loud and melodramatic. It shows the corruption of the common people of the country. Each episode focuses on a different topic of corruption like fake doctor slips for medical allowance or house grabbing etc.

Jaspal Bhatti, the lead actor in the series has been awarded Padma Bhushan posthumously for his roles in series like this one and is called as the "Singh of Comedy".
