However, this raged a storm online as Twitterati started having fun with the idea while others suggested alternative names for Sima Taparia and her Money Heist avatar.

Meanwhile, Indian Matchmaking seems to have swiftly gained popularity on the OTT platform. The show is based on Sima Taparia and her journey to marry off singles through an arranged marriage system. Indian Matchmaking is based in different cities like Houston, Mumbai, Chicago, and New Jersey among others and has eight episodes in the series.
Many people have found Sima Taparia's matchmaking skills amusing and entertaining as couples meet in order to tie the knot. However, others seem against the concept of the show and have called it downright orthodox, casteist, and sexist among other things. A handful of these people have also expressed their opinion on social media and made memes out of it.

In other news, Money Heist is one of the most popular shows on Netflix which aired its third and fourth season in 2020. The Netflix series is based on a criminal mastermind called 'Professor' and a group of people who seem to have nothing to lose.

The fourth season of Money Heist ended at the cliffhanger where the Professor's lair was found out by Alicia Sierre. The fifth season has not been officially renewed but the ending of season four predicts another season will be made to bring finality to the story. Money Heist cast includes Ursula Corbero, Alvaro Morte, Alba Flores, Itziar Ituno, Esther Acebo, Miguel Herran, Pedro Alonso, Jamie Lorente, and others.
