Thought the ending was a bit abrupt...but liked how breezy the rest of it was! I would’ve liked to see a “where they are now” segment though

It’s interesting. But i think it’s unfair to generalize about all Indian marriages/relationships based on this show. It’ll be like thinking all people in Jersey act like the cast from The Jersey Shore.

I thought/hope it was satire. The casual sexism, classism and overall superficiality of the matchmaking process as depicted on the show was appalling.

Nadia seems to be a favorite among men. She is beautiful and seems easy going. I wonder why she can’t find a guy on her own and had to depend on a Matchmaker?

So, I was watching The Indian matchmaking show today (Netflix famous / infamous 😂)
Just wanted to know if you also binged it
I personally loved it as I enjoy of Reality Drama
and also got to know how different and difficult Indian society is.
If you haven't I will recommend it for all people in this bowl

I’m finally watching Indian matchmaking - and honestly I think this style of introducing people based on families, matchmaker should be way more common. So many people make terrible partner choices. More Sima Aunties!

So I’m late to the Indian Matchmaking series. Is it the guy who has to be wealthy and the women who need to come from wealth? There doesn’t seem to be a lot of emphasis on what the women do for a living, but the men all seem either well-off or getting called losers. Is that what people look for in real life too? So there’s no place for women on the come up to be with someone above their own social class?

Why is everyone here so triggered by the White Tiger? That’s how the majority of India lives, please get outside your white collar bubbles. And stop saying “the media always shows poverty”, they also released shows like Bollywood Wives and Indian Matchmaking.

Hey all,

I am trying to reschedule my Visa Appointment for H1B Dropbox and I see a warning that I have exceeded the limit of appointments canceled and will not be able to rescheduled until an MVR fees is paid.
I have rescheduled twice in the past.

So does that mean I cannot reschedule because I am able to go upto the reschedule page.

Thanks!

I’m going through interviews currently and I’m curious y’all’s take-
When they ask you what your expected salary is… do you tell them a number or ask for their budget first? Will I screw myself over by giving them a range and close out any possibility to negotiate??

This is normal in India/South Asia. My theory is these places have large populations & are strapped for resources. This is also the reason they dont follow traffic rules & need to be first.
