We still can’t stop reeling about Indian Matchmaking. The show is just so entertaining but real for all us desi girls and guys who have felt the shaadi pressure from our families. The fact that it’s reality TV makes it connect all the more to the audience; Twitter is going crazy with siding with some characters and relating with others.
We picked some of the best tweets to label the many characters whom we came across on Indian Matchmaking. They are:

The cat sneering at couples on a date, which is me
If you’ve finished watching #IndianMatchmaking I’d just like to let you know that I too angrily stare at the male half of a hetrosexual couple on a date the way the cat does on Pradyuman & Rushali’s date.

Last, but definitely not the least, the dusky brown girls who don’t fit any aunty’s bracket of being fair and lovely and therefore aren’t even on the show.
Imagine only wanting fair skin girls, when beautiful darkskin Indians exist? #IndianMatchmaking pic.twitter.com/6liHOg73oV
