Barakah Meets Barakah

Review by Sarbashree Mallik

The Short 

Barakah Meets Barakah picks a witty approach to addressing the modern relationship maneuvers, rather than overthrowing traditions, and debunking taboos in a controversial way! 

The Long 

A unique story of a guy from a middle-class background, meets a girl from a wealthy family, and they fall in love in a country that grimaces it. A bittersweet and charming tale about the millennial generation and their take on the social and political restrictions that stand in the way of mingling with the opposite sex. Barakah Meets Barakah is an anomalous story of attraction and the first Saudi romantic comedy on the screen. 

To watch or not to watch? 

Obviously, yes! You should browse through your Netflix account, jolt yourself up with a tub of popcorn and watch it! A unique take on Love!
