When talking about college life, the norm is to adopt a lighthearted tone, with a garnish of drama every now and then. Consequently, a show like Operation MBBS which shatters this mould, promises to infuse a fresh breath of air in the Indian web series space. With a potentially poignant portrayal of the struggles of the students of a medical college, it becomes an engagement with peer pressure, past traumas, familial expectations and the constant struggle to perform irrespective of them all. The show seems to employ drama in an artful way, perhaps offering a little bit of something for viewers with varied expectations.

This travel blog, hosted by Aisha Ahmed and Ayush Mehra, takes the viewer on a road trip into the heart of South India. The visuals are stunning, the colour palette being used most judiciously and skilfully. The three-parter series might inspire you as well to hit the road. However, beyond the visuals, there is not much the script has to offer structurally. Watch it for the colours, the vast expanse of open spaces and a voyeuristic fulfilment of the desire to be on a trip.

A wonderful short film, Doodho Nahao Pooto Phalo is made of the simplest, but deeply touching moments. The story, straight at first glance, unfolds to reveal the complexities of attachment, fidelity and hurt. At the heart of the film by MensXP is the love story of Nikhil and Radhika, portrayed in the most beautiful manner by the actors. Adding an extra flavour to it is a grumpy grandmother, an endearing domestic help and an annoying younger sibling. Amidst all of this is a hassled mother, eager to get her daughter to like the boy and vice versa. As the situation unravels despite her best efforts, the viewer is left smiling at the innocent manner of storytelling of DNPP.

The Indian webspace has a new addition that promises to add some colour at the end of your long day. The story is about two young advertising professionals, both trying to step out of their comfort zone. The premise the show sets in its pilot is refreshing and supplemented with decent performances and convincing chemistry. The relationship the two protagonists share is a love story waiting to happen, but will this turn out to be more than they can chew as they already struggle with leaving their comfort zone behind?
