But amongst the many web series that pass like clouds, one series has stood out.

This Sony Liv original is directed by Sumit Vyas, who is popularly known for his work in Tripling. Unlike other star-studded series that have captured the market with their hype and heavy promotions, this series got overshadowed by the noise, but despite that, it has received 4-star reviews and an 8.2 IMDb rating.
The plot of this series revolves around friendship, parenting, and emotional adulthood. The story talks about three close friends played by Barun Sobti, Anjali Anand, and Priya Bapat who are finding their way through life in their early 30s, fighting inner demons and balancing between career and family life.
The series is divided into 8 parts, with each episode of 30-40 minutes. It is written by Anand-Purusharan, and it reflects on how today's generation of young parents struggles to blend traditional values with modern responsibilities. The series comprises humour, subtle drama, and a whole lot of emotions. It also shows how strong friendship comes to rescue in the test of times.
The series also stands out for its representation of parenting, especially from a male perspective.
In the time where suspense thrillers have been dominating the OTT space, this real and raw series not only entertains you but also provokes you to think. At its core, Raat Jawaan Hai is about learning to embrace change, let go of expectations, and find strength in companionship. If you are looking for a series that can offer you comfort, introspection, and hope, you must add it to your must-watch list.
