Indian cinema’s most consistent hitmaker is officially making his digital debut. Filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani—the mastermind behind landmarks like 3 Idiots and Munna Bhai M.B.B.S.—is set to release his maiden web series, Pritam and Pedro, streaming exclusively on JioHotstar starting July 3.
The makers dropped a quirky concept poster featuring an abandoned ATM on a beach, teasing a mystery blended with Hirani’s signature humor and warmth. While plot details are tightly under wraps, the show is a unique cyber-crime thriller meets human-camaraderie drama.
The series boasts a phenomenal ensemble cast:
The 'Munna Bhai' Reunion: Legendary actor Arshad Warsi stars as an old-school cop, marking an exciting reunion with Hirani.
A Family Debut: The show introduces Vir Hirani (Rajkumar Hirani’s son) in his acting debut as a young officer.
Powerhouse Performers: The stellar cast is rounded out by Vikrant Massey and Mona Singh.
While Hirani serves as the creator and showrunner, the series is directed by acclaimed filmmaker Avinash Arun (Paatal Lok, Three of Us).
Reflecting on the long-format space, Hirani shared, "I’ve always enjoyed stories where very different people are forced to come together... The long-format space gave us the opportunity to spend more time with the characters and really explore their journey."
Get ready for an unpredictable ride filled with humor, madness, and deep emotion. Mark your calendars for July 3 to watch Pritam and Pedro only on JioHotstar!
