Desi Bling On Netflix: Netflix’s new reality series, Desi Bling, has officially started streaming, and it is already getting a very mixed response from viewers online. Inspired by the massive success of the hit series Dubai Bling, the show focuses on the lives of the wealthy elite in the city. The show explores high-society drama, luxury lifestyles, deep friendships, and bitter rivalries.
To add mainstream celebrity appeal, popular Indian television stars Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash have joined the glamorous cast. Many viewers have already binge-watched the entire series and rushed to X (formerly Twitter) to share their honest reviews.
Desi Bling Twitter Review
The reaction to the series has completely split the internet. Some fans found the show highly entertaining and perfect for a mindless binge-watch. One netizen tweeted, "#DesiBling is crack scripted entertainment. If you are looking for morally pure characters it's not for you. Twins, Teja and Pamala were best characters, their reactions made me laugh. Lailli and Pamala cat fights were so funny. Of course men are we don't care about them."
Taking shows like Desi Bling seriously and fighting over them is a sign of low intelligence, knowing it's scripted and signed by the ones participating in it. 😒

Scripted or not there is clear difference between dubai and desi bling. The girls in Dubai bling were treated as individuals and desi bling is showing the indian misogynistic mentality…all the men in desi bling getting along well because they have similar views 🙃#desibling https://t.co/nP4fXNdGLQ

However, not everyone was impressed by the glamorous lifestyle on display. Another X user wrote, "I don't want to compare it with Dubai Bling but they are defs more pretentious here."

The lesson from Desi Bling for #TejRan is that they should talk to each other privately and calmly, understand each other point try to solve things instead of getting angry or discussing their problems within their friend circle don't discus their relationship issues with friends

The show also brought back strong memories for reality TV fans, with some criticizing Tejasswi's behavior. One comment read, "#DesiBling is the reminder Y I h@ted Teja in #BiggBoss. Karan run while u still hv time. Except Tabinda none of the participants in the show r likeable at all bt then Tabinda is also frustrating with her naiveness & pati parmeshwar sh*t. Girl he is partying evry week with girls."

Binda is such a sad and pathetic woman, she's nobody but her husband's slave, and the girls should realize that her husbands cheating has made her the most bitter and insecure woman ever.

There's no amount of bleach or blonde extensions that can cure her black heart. #DesiBling pic.twitter.com/pLzjOfcdHQ
