- Tandoor (2021- Present, IMDb: 5.6/10)
This show is a narration of the fateful events that took place on the night of 2nd July 1995. Its plot is loosely based on the case of that night that shook the entire nation of India due to the atrocity of the crime committed. The case involved a husband murdering his wife, cutting her up into pieces, and roasting her in the tandoor of his restaurant.
The show tells you a story that may have already heard of. However, the way they have portrayed it is what keeps you wanting to watch it until the very end. It very beautifully portrays the struggle of a man that is suspected of a crime. He is not only trying to run away from the law but also from his guilty conscience. The twist at the end is something you will not see coming. It will make you see the events that transpired in a very different light.
- Halala (2019, IMDb: 7.7/10)
The plot follows the rules of marriage and divorce along with its issues within Islamic traditions. The story starts off with a newly-wed couple- Afza and Raahil. They initially bask in the sweetness of a new marriage. However, one day, in a fit of rage, Raahil divorces Afza through the rules of ‘Triple Talaq. When he cools down, he realizes the extent of his actions. He asks his elders for help regarding remarrying Afza. However, they inform him about the rule of Nikah Halala.
It states that if a divorced woman wants to remarry her first husband, she has to first get married to another man. She has to then consummate that relationship and then divorce that man. Only then would she be able to remarry her first husband. Hearing this, Raahil takes the help of his friend Zaid to marry Afza so he can then remarry her.
The entire series resonates with you because it shows you the true extent of the issues that women face within the marriage rules in Islam. While the storyline may be a little critical, the show makes you feel deeply for the woman in the situation, who not only has no choice in the matter but also has no voice of her own.
