October 19, 2024: The much-anticipated Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives premiered on Netflix on October 18, marking the third instalment of the popular series The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. This time, the show brings a fresh twist with a dash of “Delhi ka tadka.” Joining the original cast—Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana Panday, Neelam Kothari, and Seema Sajdeh—are three new faces from Delhi: Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, entrepreneur Kalyani Saha Chawla (founder of luxury silverware brand Razon), and art and design collector Shalini Passi.
The new season attempts to spice things up by pitting Mumbai’s Bollywood wives against these high-society Delhi women, making for an interesting contrast between the two cities’ cultures. Fans can also look forward to some star-studded cameos from Bollywood favourites like Saif Ali Khan, Karan Johar, and Gauri Khan. But many netizen’s are finding contrived and boring.
