Size Matters Web Series Cast Name, Director and Production Team, Release Timeline, Timing, Story & More

“Size Matters 2” is an Indian web series in the adult-/drama category, streaming via ULLU, that tackles themes of body image, self-esteem, and social pressures in modern relationships. It stirred up conversation partly because of its provocative title and bold subject matter: how a person’s physical appearance (size) can affect self-worth and romantic acceptance. While the series draws criticism (as many adult-drama web shows do) for sensationalism, it also raises real emotional questions.

Below is a quick overview in table form, followed by detailed sections covering cast & crew, timeline, story, etc.

Overview

Cast, Director, Production Team

Here’s a deeper look at who’s involved in Size Matters 2:

Cast (Main & Supporting)

• Shaikha Kumariy as Aarohi – the central female character around whom much of the drama pivots.
• Priyanshi as Priya – close in the cast; a supporting role.
• Tapasya as Aarohi’s Bhabhi (sister-in-law)
• Ravi Bhatia as Aadi – the male lead / romantic interest.
• Rohila Tripura as Shanno — another supporting role.
• Raziya as Simran.
• Pyarali Nayani as Aarohi’s Father.

• Plus some others in smaller roles (e.g. Anmol, etc.).

Directors & Creative Team

• Nanndita Kothari – Co-director.
• Sumeet Kumar Sodani – Co-director.
• Creator – Bandita Bora is cited in some sources as the creator behind Size Matters Season 2.
• Platform / Production Company – Produced for ULLU, which is known for adult-/erotic-drama content in Hindi.

I couldn’t find widely published detailed info on all heads of production (e.g. cinematographer, scriptwriter(s), music, etc.) in the public domain; many ULLU series do not have as exhaustive credits publicly accessible as mainstream cinema.

Release Timeline & Timing

Understanding when the show came out, its schedule, and how it was delivered helps put its impact in context.

• The first episode of Size Matters 2 was released on 8 May 2020.
• It has 6 episodes total.
• Each episode is about 23 minutes long.
• Platform is ULLU, which is an OTT app popular in India for “bold/adult dramas”. The show is part of their line-up for such content.

Because of its adult theme, the show likely had restrictions / age gating, which is typical for ULLU content.

Story / Plot & Themes

Here’s what the plot is, along with its central themes, and some of the narrative arcs.

Basic Plot

The core story follows Aarohi, a young woman who suffers from societal and self-image pressures. She is distressed about her body size / appearance, especially in the context of romantic relationships. Driven by her desire to be accepted by her love interest (Aadi), she attempts various extreme / “ludicrous” ways to change herself. Some sources say she even “cheats on her sister” in pursuit of her goal, which implies interpersonal conflict and moral dilemmas.

As her efforts escalate, Aarohi encounters disgrace, social judgement, and complications — socially as well as emotionally — which force her to face harsh truths about self-worth, love, and what “size” really means to her and others.

Key Themes

• Body image and size stigma: The show is built almost entirely around how size (and by implication weight, appearance) can affect someone’s self-esteem and how others respond to them.
• Desire for acceptance / romantic love: Much of the conflict arises from Aarohi’s longing to be loved (or considered desirable) by Aadi, and how that motivates her actions.
• Self-sacrifice and shame: What people are willing to do to fit in; hiding flaws; enduring social shame.
• Moral / relational conflict: Because to pursue her goal, Aarohi ends up making choices that hurt others (e.g. her family / sister), and then has to face the consequences.
• Social judgment / external pressures: Community, family, partner expectations, societal beauty standards play big roles.

Narrative Arcs / Important Turning Points

While not all details are public, from synopsis and episode outlines one can surmise:

• The early episodes set up Aarohi’s dissatisfaction, her relationship with her family and sister, how Aadi figures in her life.
• Then, as Aarohi pursues change (through diet, perhaps cosmetic or lifestyle changes), friction arises — with her own identity, her morality, her relationships.
• Critical turning point: when something she does “goes too far” — perhaps deceiving someone, harming someone or causing personal harm.
• Climax: Confrontation / realisation: that external appearance alone cannot guarantee acceptance or happiness.
• Resolution: Likely some reconciliation, personal growth, or at least a lesson (though ULLU dramas sometimes leave open or morally ambiguous endings).

Timing & Context

Placing Size Matters 2 in its broader cultural and industry context helps understand why it matters (pun intended).

• By 2020, Indian OTT platforms were rapidly expanding. Besides mainstream ones (Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hotstar etc.), platforms like ULLU, ALTBalaji, etc., catered to niche / bold / adult / erotic drama content. Size Matters 2 fits into this trend.
• Social conversations in India (and globally) about body positivity, fat shaming, mental health, self-esteem were (and continue to be) growing. So a show like this taps into a relevant anxiety of many.
• However, such shows also attract criticism — for sensationalism, moral policing, or for reinforcing stereotypes.

What Worked & What Critics Might Question

While detailed review data is sparse (ULLU series often don’t get as much mainstream critical write-ups), here are strengths and potential criticisms:

Strengths

• Bold subject matter: The show addresses something that many feel but few openly discuss: how much our sense of self is tied to how we look, and how society responds.
• Relatability: Many viewers (especially young people, especially women) could see themselves in Aarohi’s insecurities and struggles.
• Emotional stakes: Because it’s not just about appearance but relational conflict, shame, identity, it tries to offer more than just titillation.

Potential Weaknesses / Criticisms

• Sensationalism: ULLU content is often accused of leaning heavily into eroticism / sensational plot points. There is risk that the show uses the “size” angle more as hook than for nuanced exploration.
• Shallow resolution: Sometimes, shows like this may promise growth but deliver moralistic clichés, or may resolve in a way that suggests “just change your appearance” rather than deeper self-acceptance.
• Reinforcing stigma even while critiquing it: By placing so much attention on “size”, the show might inadvertently reinforce the idea that size is fundamentally damaging, rather than that societal attitudes are

Production & Behind the Scenes

While full production details are not all publicly available, here’s what is known / reasonable to infer:

• Filming & Execution: Given it’s a 6-episode short season with 23-minute episodes, budget and production scale are likely modest compared to big OTT shows. The directors (Nanndita Kothari & Sumeet Kumar Sodani) would have had to balance storytelling, sensitivity of theme, and the commercial demands of the platform.
• Direction style: Given the nature of ULLU’s audience, one expects the visual style to often emphasize dramatic moments, possibly stylized scenes showing Aarohi’s internal shame or contrast between her perceptions vs reality.
• Music / score / editing: These are key in dramas of this kind — transitions, emotional beats, the sense of internal conflict. However, specific names of music director, editor etc. are not widely listed in public sources I found.

Release & Reception

• As mentioned, the show went live on 8 May 2020.
• Because of ULLU’s positioning, immediate reception tends to be split: some viewers engage positively (they feel seen, or like the boldness), others criticize moral / taste aspects.
• There are also online discussions (on social media, YouTube) about how realistic or exploitative the show is.

I could not find strong review aggregators (Rotten Tomatoes etc.) for Size Matters 2 specifically. It doesn’t seem to have had wide mainstream critical coverage.

Why “Size Matters” Still Resonates (and its Limits)

Why people watch such series — and what they gain or lose in doing so — is worth reflecting on.

• These kinds of shows tap into insecurities many people carry. Body image, weight, appearance are constant pressures in modern societies, especially with social media, dating apps, beauty standards etc. A show that externalises those pressures can offer catharsis (or at least a mirror).
• It also raises awareness: while the show is dramatized, it can prompt conversations — about self-worth, about what society values, about relationships beyond superficiality.

On the flip side:

• There is danger in norming “fixing the body” rather than “accepting the self”, unless the narrative carefully handles consequences.
• If sensational elements (nudity, eroticism, exaggerated drama etc.) overshadow the core message, the show may be more about shock than insight.

Conclusion

Size Matters 2 is a provocative entry in the Indian OTT/ULLU space. With its exploration of body image, romantic longing, shame, and the cost of societal expectations, it aims to straddle the line between entertainment and social commentary. The cast delivers as the emotional anchors, the directors use the format of short episodes to keep momentum, and the release came at a time when digital content was increasingly comfortable delving into taboo or semi-taboo topics.

Whether one considers it a “good show” or a cautionary tale depends largely on one’s expectations: if you want nuanced exploration and dialogue, the show gives glimpses, but perhaps doesn’t go as deep as it could; if you want drama, conflict, emotional intensity, it delivers.
