Mumbai, Nov 19 (NationPress) National Award-winning actor Pankaj Tripathi is embarking on his journey as a producer with an innovative eight-episode dramedy series titled “Perfect Family”. He expresses that taking on the production of his debut show using a format that diverges from conventional methods feels both refreshing and essential.
Presented as a “JAR Series” and produced by Ajay Rai under the JAR Pictures banner along with Mohit Chhabra, the series is poised to debut on YouTube with a structured pay model.
Discussing his role as a producer, Pankaj stated: “Perfect Family is incredibly close to my heart, not just for its narrative but also for the daring distribution strategy we're adopting. In today’s landscape, audiences are discovering stories directly, and platforms like YouTube have transformed into robust venues for premium long-format content.”
“It felt both refreshing and essential to produce my first series in a model that breaks away from traditional formats. I was deeply moved when I first heard the idea; it’s a genuine story conveyed with warmth and humor.”
Directed by Sachin Pathak and created by Palak Bhambri, Perfect Family will launch on the official YouTube channel of JAR Series. The show humorously examines the stigma surrounding therapy in India, focusing on a not-so-perfect family compelled to seek therapy due to a situation involving their young daughter, leading to ensuing chaos.
Pankaj remarked: “Sachin has tackled a delicate subject with empathy and balance, allowing families everywhere to see themselves in this show. I hope viewers connect with the series and appreciate this new storytelling approach.”
The cast features an impressive lineup including Gulshan Devaiah, Neha Dhupia, Manoj Pahwa, Seema Pahwa, Girija Oak, among others.
Producer Ajay Rai expressed, “At JAR Pictures, we’ve always aimed to broaden storytelling possibilities, not only in form but also in how narratives reach their audiences. The YouTube pay model opens a whole new realm for Indian creators.”
Rai added: “With such a talented cast and Pankaj's debut as a producer, Perfect Family is the perfect project to define this new arena. We have believed in this show from the start and are eager for audiences globally to experience it.”
