The show's narrative places a spotlight on the grandeur of Indian weddings, skillfully weaving together a compelling and confident storyline that captures attention from start to finish.
The weddings on the show are really fancy and well-shown, but the Buddhist wedding is the one that people find most touching. Fans love Episode 5 the most; it's called 'The Heart Skipped a Beat.'
In this episode, Radhika Apte is a Dalit bride, and she asks for a Buddhist wedding instead of the usual pheras ceremony and court marriage. She even has pictures of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and Buddha there. People really like this part of the show.
Apte's character says, "Politics is everywhere."

People are so amazed by this intense scene that they're sharing their thoughts on Twitter and can't stop thinking about it. Directed by Ghaywan, this episode is called the most impactful.
Of all the weddings, the one featuring Radhika Apte was my absolute favourite.

This episode by Neeraj Ghaywan was handled so deftly. The way Pallavi Menke is written & then lived by Radhika is just fabulous. #MadeInHeavenS2 pic.twitter.com/JQExFBUQ04

He uses his brilliant view to let the characters' voices shine, not just the writer's or director's. He makes Apte's character talk about her political beliefs. This challenges old Brahmanical ideas and gives a strong Dalit perspective.
