From bubbly Meera’s adventures in Girl In The City to the popular coming-of-age story of four girls in The Trip, we can think of nothing better to do than spend our weekends binge-watching them all!
Here are some amazing new Indian web series that you need to watch ASAP!
1. What The Folks
A marriage is not just the holy matrimony of two souls, but of two entirely different families that come together, and most often, lovingly struggle to fit in with each other. Dice Media brings us one such family that is breaking stereotypes and evolving with the present generation, even with highly contrasting worldviews. This is the struggle of a young man, Nikhil, who is forced to stay with his in-laws for a few weeks. How will it all go down? Take a look!

2. Bisht, Please!
Simply stated as ‘the misadventures of a good girl’, TVF’s Bisht, Please! is a tale of a woman, Nidhi, who does everything the right way, with rules in place and a high moral compass that rules her way to live. But are rules everything in life? When problems come knocking at our door, do we turn to our morals to help us out? Watch the episodes here.

3. The Test Case
Strong, bold, and exactly what our world needs right now, Alt Balaji’s The Test Case is the story about Captain Shikha Sharma played by Nimrat Kaur, the first woman test case in a combat role, within the Indian Army. Women struggling to seize their success in a male-dominated sphere is not unheard of, and this is exactly why this series should be featuring in your to-watch list.

4. The ‘Other’ Love Story
With the kind of social stigma that is attached with same sex relationships in India, JustLikeThat Films has done an amazing job with ‘The Other Love Story’ which shows us the loving relationship between two young girls Aadya and Aachal, at a time where handwritten love letters and phone conversations over the landline were all that they had. Set in the 90s, this is India’s first lesbian web series, and you definitely need to check it out, for a heart full of warm fuzzies.

5. Sleepless Nights
The first ever Punjabi web series by White Hill Music shows the budding love story between Shefali and Bunny, a young couple that seems to be your everyday sweet-talking lovebirds; until it turns into a frenzied relationship of lies, control, and a whole lot of bitterness, that will probably strike a chord with all the 20-somethings that probably fear the same in their lives of bliss!

6. Dev DD
Inspired by Devdas, Alt Balaji’s Dev DD is the female version of the classic, with the protagonist – Devika Dharam Dwivedi – who is a no-nonsense woman. She is liberal about her sexual choices, proud about flaunting it, and is unafraid to express her affinity to alcohol and all things ‘taboo’, as dictated by society. Come on, girls, you know you want to take a look at this one.
