LOVE ADVICE from Indian Matchmaking on Netflix

I spent the weekend binge-watching Season 3 of Indian Matchmaking on Netflix. As a self-proclaimed Indophile and a student of love, for me the show is a colorful and sometimes useful concoction of entertainment and sage advice. The star and matchmaker, Sima Aunty, works with single men and women (all over 30, sometimes over 40) […]
