Tried watching Pradeeps of Pittsburgh but could not after 20 minutes. Had high hopes since Vijal Patel from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Middle_(TV_series) wrote this. Bad acting, bad plot, bad screenplay!
Talking about "The middle" show, it's one of my favorite shows and it depicts the life of a typical American family tracking the kids from KG to college graduation and beyond. Anyone planning to move to the US, should first watch this to get an idea of what awaits them, and it can save them from a lot of dilemmas afterwards!

Watched "Freedom at Midnight" on SonyLiv. It is based on book written by Larry Collins and Dominique Lapiere. Read this way back in 1987, it took them 37 years to make a movie out of it.

It is ok, watchable if you are interested in what happened during those turbulent years between 1946-47 and politics that surrounded Indian independence. But the book was more interesting and descriptive. For tv they had to shorten it to fit in 7 installments.

Funny as they showed Jodhpur Palace as Viceroy's Palace (Rashtrapati Bhawan) of Delhi. May be the director did not get permission to shoot inside RPB.
