I love India and I really wanted to lose myself in this show. The settings and costumes are beyond gorgeous, but that is where the magic stops. I am going to blame the direction and production for messing this up, because every single one of the actors are so stilted and unnatural in their line delivery that it can't be ALL of their faults. There are some quite good actors here, but they totally wasted in this production. And between the characters, the story arcs, and the dialogue, they have managed to hit on every cliche possible. Not to mention the pacing, which creeps along at the pace of a glacier. It's a real pity that such an obviously expensive project is so full and lifeless.
