Busy lives, right? But in that severely busy life, how often a day do you find yourself on shame trips for doom scrolling? We are thriving on that giddy, farcical algorithm right now—no matter how much we try to deny, it knows us better than we know ourselves now. With that, microdramas have become our doom-scrolling checkpoint. Drama is life, and with our attention span getting narrower, Microdramas are breathing life into our busy lives.
Rent A Boyfriend, written by Ritika Bajaj, a 51-episode series is that one sort that you can enjoy. A perfect snackable content, that the Gen-Z would love. It is highly relatable, where three friends get into a loop of an application that is called Rent A Boyfriend, which has every detail of the women in the drama.
It is fun, engaging and bingeworthy. Narrative looks catchy. It also focuses on the raging contemporary bait, Artificial Intelligence. And how over the years, how your data has been illicitly fetched. How are you always watched upon, and you understand that nothing really is private as we assume it to be.
Coming back to micro dramas, the wave is here—whether one likes it or not. The wave is here and is unapologetically addictive. They are fast-paced, quick and give you the utmost guilty pleasure—gives you drama at every swipe.
IWMBuzz rates it 4 stars.
