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.
