Ensuring that the show is authentic to today’s young woman is a majority female crew. Women lead this show from the front, with the director, writers, editor, principal cast, assistant director team, line producer, and several other key positions being filled by women. The series is directed by FTII alumnus Jessica Sadana, an acclaimed documentary filmmaker, whose films have been screened at multiple international festivals like Berlinale. The show is written by Ayesha Nair (who previously wrote “What The Folks!”) and Maitreyee Upadhyay. This season has been edited by FTII alumnus, Charu Takkar (of “What The Folks!” fame). The series stars Aisha Ahmed, an extremely popular FilterCopy face and most recently a lead in the Excel Entertainment film “3 Storeys” and Yashaswini Dayama, who plays played a key supporting role in Red Chillies’ film “Dear Zindagi”. The show also has several fun guest appearances including those Sheeba Chaddha (“Raees”, “Talaash”) and Veer Rajwant Singh and Eisha Chopra, the immensely popular pair from “What The Folks”. 

Sharing the motivation behind the series, Ashwin Suresh and Anirudh Pandita, the founders of Pocket Aces said, “20s are an exciting and challenging time for all of us. Real life finally smashes into the expectations that we’ve built up in our school and college years. Adulting is a real and relatable look into how we navigate these first, few exciting years of adulthood.” The duo further added, “We, as a company, are proud to partner with so many talented female creators to provide a more authentic viewpoint about what the experience of transitioning from an teenager to an adult is like for a lot of today’s Indian women. We are confident that we have captured this memorable experience and hope today’s young woman sees a bit of herself in this show.”
