In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Beyhadh is refreshingly non-woke by contemporary standards, sticking to classic soap elements and thrilling drama. Identity politics and ideological messages take a backseat to personal obsession, love, and revenge, making it an enjoyable option for audiences tired of heavy-handed modern messaging.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Beyhadh largely focuses on character-driven storytelling and thrilling plot twists rather than using identity factors or overt ideological messaging. Its leads are complex, with flaws and motivations rooted in the narrative rather than identity politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional values such as family, loyalty, and morality are central to the story, albeit given a psychological-thriller spin. The show does not actively undermine religious or cultural traditions, nor does it subvert masculinity or femininity for ideological reasons.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Beyhadh explores a range of moral viewpoints and character motivations. While it leans melodramatic, it does not villainize traditional perspectives or enforce a rigidly modern ideological stance.
