What We Think

Mastram keeps things focused on story and characters, avoiding the typical traps of woke storytelling. If you’re tired of modern Hollywood’s lectures, this is a rare show that doesn’t hammer you with ideology.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Mastram focuses on the journey of an aspiring writer navigating taboo themes in small-town India. Characters are driven by personal ambition, flaws, and desires, rather than by modern identity politics or forced diversity. Narrative seems largely organic, prioritizing story over ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While Mastram explores taboo topics and critiques certain social conventions, it doesn't aggressively undermine traditional values like family or religion. The tone is cheeky and occasionally satirical, but there’s little overt subversion of cultural foundations.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s a diversity of perspectives shown, from the prudish to the rebellious. The show avoids heavy-handed ideological messaging, instead opting for character-driven drama where different viewpoints clash and coexist.
