Following the resounding success of Amar Singh Chamkila, Netflix and filmmaker Imtiaz Ali have reunited for O Saathi Re. Produced by Window Seat Films and Reliance Entertainment, the series will star Aditi Rao Hydari, Avinash Tiwary and Arjun Rampal.
The series is billed as an “intricate love story that explores contemporary human emotions.” Imtiaz Ali will take the role of creator, writer and showrunner. He will also be the executive producer of the series along with Mohit Choudhary.
Arif Ali, who previously directed the Netflix series She, will take on the role of the director. The romantic drama also marks a grand Netflix homecoming for its stellar cast. Aditi Rao Hydari returns after Heeramandi; Avinash Tiwary will follow up his performance in Sikandar Ka Muqaddar; and Arjun Rampal will gear up for his next big project after Rana Naidu Season 2.
Imtiaz Ali said in a statement, “O Saathi Re surprised me at every turn of its development. It is a modern story with a vintage heart, an enchanted fairy tale set in the fiasco of Metropolitan life. I feel both relieved and excited at having Arif direct the stellar cast of Avinash Aditi and Arjun.”
