Amazon Prime Video has added another Indian original production to its existing slate in the form of Four More Shots Please!

Said to be a true-to-life portrayal of the everyday highs and lows of the urban Indian woman, the show, based in the southern tip of Mumbai, takes a close look at the lives of four young, urban Indian women and aims to give a voice to a new generation who live and love on their own terms. It revolves around the lives of four very different women each fighting their own individual battles and tackling life as it comes. In its first season, the 10-part comedy, drama and romance series will be anchored in the unceasing friendship between our four women and revolves around their relationships, work-life conflicts, ambitions and anxieties as they live, love and deal with being women in the India of 2018.

Created in collaboration with Rangita Pritish Nandy, produced by Pritish Nandy Communications and directed by Anu Menon, the show is helmed by a predominantly women cast and crew. The Prime Original stars Sayani Gupta, Kirti Kulhari, Bani J and Maanvi Gagroo as the four women along with an ensemble cast including Prateik Babbar, Neil Bhooplalam, Lisa Ray, Milind Soman, Amrita Puri and Sapna Pabbi.

The Prime Original series will be available exclusively for Prime members on 25 January 2019 across more than 200 countries and territories.

“We are thrilled to present Four More Shots Please!,” said Vijay Subramaniam, director and head, content, Amazon Prime Video, India. “We have worked with a strong, female-led task force – right from the cast to the crew. Four More Shots Please! reflects the voices of the generation of Indian women who are independent in mind, body and thought. It’s a story that hasn’t been told yet in India and we’re glad to have the perfect partners in Pritish Nandy Communications bringing this series to fruition. Rangita Pritish Nandy’s vision and Anu Menon’s direction has truly transformed the story into a must watch series that is very entertaining and relatable to all our customers.”

Pritish Nandy, Chairman, Pritish Nandy Communications added: “Four More Shots Please! is our tribute to our times. It’s about a generation of young women, brave and vulnerable, independent and spirited, growing up in South Bombay and speaking the language of our times, living the life they yearn to live with courage, conviction and confidence. Four friends who share in each other’s joys and griefs, successes and occasional losses with love, fortitude and delight.”
