A still from Masaba Masaba
How often have Hindi offerings followed the same trope for a romantic hero — a man-child who doesn’t know his mind and has commitment issues? Neil Bhoopalam’s character in the second season of Masaba Masaba is a welcome change. As the ever-reliable Dhairya Rana who stands by Masaba Gupta every step of the way, Bhoopalam’s character breaks the mould of a rom-com hero. The actor credits the writing team for changing how pop culture represents men on screen. “I feel writers are making better choices. They are more experienced, and are adding tremendous value to our stories. Before the first season, Sonam Nair [writer-
director] described the concept and character to me. When I said yes to it, I wanted no more details,” he says.
