Below are five of the many reasons why Taaza Khabar should be added to your watch list

YouTube sensation Bhuvan Bam makes his OTT debut

The main reason why Taaza Khabar should make it to your must watch list is the OTT debut of the YouTube sensation Bhuvan Bam. Having witnessed him ace comic roles earlier, this drama series promises to bring out a never seen before avatar of his, adding yet another feather to his creative cap as he plays the character of Vasya. Vasya is us and we are Vasya! His ups, downs, highs and lows, his wishful thinking and aspirations - this is a story that we all have lived in our own ways.

Shot in Aamchi Mumbai!

The series is a powerhouse of emotions right from comedy, drama and romance, but it is also relatable on many levels, which makes it a complete package. 

An all-rounder cast

A peek into the powerful cast of Taaza Khabar is all you need to hit the play button. The show has some powerhouses who are superstars in their own rite. Think Bhuvan Bam, Shriya Pilgaonkar, Prathamesh Parab, JD Chakravarthy and Deven Bhojani! These dynamic actors with their interesting characterizations form an eclectic mix, promising a complete entertainer.

The epic one-liners!

The one thing the show promised since its trailer launch is epic dialogues - be it Vasya’s “Samajh Main Nahin Aa Raha, Ye Vardaan Hai Ya Shrapp, Naseeb Ki Baarish Hai Ya Kismat Mere Pe Moot Rahin Hai” or aai’s “Logon Ka Achha Time Nahin Tikta, Apna Bura Time Kitna Tikega?”. The dialogues are hard-hitting, aspirational and right on point!

Reality check?

Borrowing realism from society, the narrative of Taaza Khabar builds on different kinds of people, emotions, the dreams, the realities of life. It makes us believe in the world of miracles, as we witness each character navigating their way through ordinary but extraordinary situations. While these truths hit you right in the face, the fictitious angle is the saving we all are looking for, both in reel and real life!
