The OTT space allows experimentation, and it appears that Swara Bhasker has been making the most out of it. Swara has been entertaining her audience with varied roles in shows like Flesh and Rasbhari, and the latest addition to the list is Netflix’s Bhaag Beanie Bhaag. The show follows Beanie Bhatnagar, played by Swara, who steps away from her supposed ‘perfect life’ to become a stand-up comedian. “It’s a very charming show,” Swara said in a conversation with indianexpress.com.
In a year when things aren’t going well around the globe, Swara believes that this show is just the antidote as there is an “endearing quality” about it. “The nicest thing about Bhaag Beanie Bhaag is that there is so much hope, even in all the mess that’s going on. It will win you over,” she said.
As soon as the trailer of the show dropped, there were comparisons made between Bhaag Beanie Bhaag and popular Amazon Prime Video series The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. Co-creator and actor Ravi Patel shared that these comparisons did not really shock him. Since the Netflix series appears to be about the stand-up comedy world and there is a female at the centre of it, Ravi expressed that “anytime a second female does the same thing, the world just can’t believe it. I don’t think there are any actual comparisons to be made.”
