There's Little That's 'Taaza' in Bhuvan Bam's Show
Taaza Khabar Season 2 has Bhuvan Bam reprising his role as Vasant who remains true to his character. But what falters is having a stale approach to the story that leaves little for actors, including Jaaferi, to chew on. It’s the same old cycle of a flashing new update, a new plan, and no consequence.
In Taaza Khabar Season 2, there’s little that’s taaza (fresh). There’s ambition, but not enough drive. There are those next big things, but not the smoothest ways forward. A show, often oscillating between past, present and future, lacks the ‘vardaan’ (blessing) of staying afloat - something that, both the series and Bhuvan Bam’s character Vasant Gawde desperately need.
Bhuvan Bam Gives the Role His Best Shot
The series certainly isn't a junkpile but it does end up in a puddly heap more often than is good for it. Go in with your eyes open.
Bhuvan Bam’s Vasant Gawde, Mr. Vardaan to the world owing to his ability to see events before they come to pass, is back seeking to make a killing from the prescient news updates that he receives on a mobile phone app. This time around, the Taaza Khabar protagonist is either on the backfoot or, worse still, down on his haunches. His plight necessitates desperate measures as he faces new challenges hurled at him by a man who will stop at nothing. But the show, notwithstanding a series of dramatic confrontations, struggles to skirt around the pitfalls of an idea that is beginning to wear thin.
