Having pioneered the web series genre in India

and having created two very successful web series Permanent Roommates and Pitchers, Arunabh Kumar, CEO and Founder of TVF says, “Valentine’s Day is pretty much the perfect day to continue the “third kind of love story” that Mickey and Tanya introduced us to in Permanent Roommates, Season 1. Permanent Roommates 2 is the first sequel of any web series made out of India. The first season got nearly 12 million views and was a testament to the love our viewers had for this funny, relatable urban love story. With PR2, we are moving up to the next level and are really excited to continue this story which the entire family can watch together. With a host of surprise artists, and a unique story. And thanks to Ola, you’ll be in for quite a ride this season!”
Biswapati Sarkar, Creative Director, TVF and Writer, Permanent Roommates, added, “It is always a challenge to return with a sequel of something, which is already so admired by people. We wanted to do a Season 2 only when we have a storyline which is better than the earlier season. This season is more mature in terms of content, and deals with several different aspects of modern day relationships. We have been able to put together a brilliant additional cast alongside the existing one. To manage public and personal expectations along with the shoot schedule has always been a tough task, but with a brilliant crew led by Deepak Mishra, it seems feasible for now. We’re trying to break a lot of stereotypes usually associated with a romantic comedy, let’s see how far we can go with it.’
Sudarshan Gangrade, VP, Marketing at Ola says, “TVF has spearheaded the use of digital as a media platform and pioneered original long-form content in India. Their approach to story-telling and quality of content helps them engage closely with millions of digital-savvy youth and we are happy to work with TVF.”
