It won’t be wrong to say that Pitchers was the landmark show that paved the way for more content creators to explore the web series format. It even made it to IMDb’s list of Top 20 TV mini-series and was popularly said to be India’s answer to the show Silicon Valley
The first season of Pitchers premiered 3 years back and fans have been eagerly waiting for the new season ever since. But, unfortunately, it was put on the back burner until now becauseTVF’s CEO Arunabh Kumar, who played Yogi, was roped into controversies of sexual harassment.
2. Little Things 2
Dice Media’s Little Things completely lived upto its title and beautifully portrayed the cute little things every relationship has. It normalized live-in relationships in the Indian landscape and was widely applauded by the urban audiences.
From being #CoupleGoals to the most cheerful couple on the internet, the show’s lead Dhruv Saxena (Dhruv) and Mithila Palkar (Kavya) infused a breeze of fresh air into the series with their effortless performances. And yeah, they are coming back once again with a new season to charm us all.

The brilliant and edgiest writers at AIB are debuting in the space with this show. It is a political satire that is expected to blow the audience’s mind.
But, it got postponed due to the ill-health of Irrfan. The actor is battling his neuroendocrine tumor in London and might come back to India later this year for the release. *fingers crossed*
