Postcards: A Flawed Gem of Nollywood-Bollywood Collaboration
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The excitement was high when news broke about a fresh collaboration between the giants of the film industry, Nollywood and Bollywood. However, skepticism lingered after the previous attempt, “Namaste Wahala,” left a lukewarm impression. With this cautious optimism, I went into “Postcards,” and while the series held promise, it ultimately fell short of expectations.

A Glimpse into the Story and Characters

“Postcards” follows the journey of Bunmi, a Nigerian single mother, who travels to India for medical reasons. Her experiences intertwine with those of various characters, including her son Yemi, who discovers the contrasting sides of India, and Zainab, whose flawless Hindi and cultural connection add intrigue.

What I Found Appealing

The mere concept of this Nollywood-Bollywood collaboration is delightful. It showcases the global reach and influence of both industries, a true meeting of cinematic titans. Furthermore, the portrayal of India through Bunmi’s eyes offers a glimpse into the warmth and hospitality of the country, while Yemi’s perspective highlights the harsher realities that sometimes exist. Despite these contrasting experiences, the series generally maintains a positive and optimistic outlook.

However, Room for Improvement Existed

While the cinematography was commendable, the storyline felt formulaic and predictable. Characters often fell into predictable arguments, and the script lacked originality. The depth of certain characters, particularly Zainab and her best friend Isioma, suffered from a lack of genuine connection and poorly developed backstories.

Tobi Bakre’s portrayal, while well-acted, felt somewhat juvenile, and the overall execution occasionally leaned towards artificiality.

A Collaboration with Potential, Yet Not Without Flaws

Despite its shortcomings, “Postcards” holds the potential for future success. The collaborative spirit between Nollywood and Bollywood is a positive development, and with stronger narratives and character development, future projects could truly shine.
