Perfect Family, a new web series, delves into the complex world of family dynamics and therapy. The show, created by Palak Bhambri, revolves around the Karkarias, a Punjabi family, who are pushed into group therapy after their granddaughter suffers an anxiety attack due to the constant bickering at home. With a talented cast, including Neha Dhupia, Manoj Pahwa, and Kaveri Seth, the series explores the impact of family trauma on mental health. The show starts on a promising note, asking a poignant question: how much of a child's mental health is shaped by the emotional chaos of adults? However, it falters in its execution, particularly with the overuse of flashbacks, which can make it difficult to follow the characters' storylines. Despite this, the cast delivers impressive performances. Hirva Trivedi shines as the young girl who sparks the family's journey, while Manoj Pahwa brings his A-game as the loud-mouthed, caring patriarch. Neha Dhupia brings a much-needed calm to the role of the family therapist. While Perfect Family doesn't always balance its ambitions, it remains watchable due to its honest portrayal of families as complicated, funny, and still functioning. When it works, it works with heart, making it a worthwhile watch for those interested in family drama and therapy.
