Mumbai, Jan 3(NationPress) Step into a universe where workplace antics are as piquant as the pickles on your table, and family drama is served with a generous helping of humor. Welcome to The Pickle Factory – a vibrant 10-episode adventure streaming on Prasar Bharati’s newly unveiled WAVES OTT platform.
Produced by Aarrav Jindal, this delightful dramedy intertwines the chaos of professional life with the warmth of familial connections, crafting a series that is both comforting and comical.
The narrative centers around Mahika (portrayed by Tanya Maniktala), who, after experiencing an unexpected dismissal and becoming an online sensation for all the wrong reasons, ends up at her grandmother's abode in Dehradun.
Compelled to undertake an internship at the family-owned pickle factory, Mahika’s escapade is laced with uproarious misadventures, all while dealing with eccentric relatives such as her mischievous uncles, Jojo (played by Gagandev Riar) and Chandu (portrayed by Naveen Kaushik), who add their unique flavor of chaotic amusement to her life.
