    “Our series depicts the true essence of the film industry”: Chunky Panday on Amazon miniTV’s Industry

    Mumbai: Amazon miniTV, Amazon’s free video streaming service, recently released the slice-of-life drama series, Industry. Produced by The Viral Fever (TVF), the series takes viewers through the life of Aayush Verma, a young and ambitious screenwriter, as he tries to make his mark in the ever-changing film industry. The show beautifully captures the complexities of personal relationships, professional obstacles, love, and the constant balance between triumph and disappointment in showbiz. Aayush’s journey serves as a poignant reflection of the aspirations and hardships faced by countless individuals who come to the city of dreams to climb the ladder of success and stardom. Industry is brought to life by a talented star cast, including Gagan Arora, Asha Negi, and Chunky Panday, among others, in pivotal roles.

    Renowned actor Chunky Panday, who plays the role of Rakesh Raman in Industry, shares insights into his character, saying, “I portray the role of Rakesh Raman, a resourceful producer. In the past, I have personally encountered a few producers who resemble Rakesh. He is not only a producer but also a part-time broker and car dealer, who is willing to go to any lengths to secure opportunities. I believe, without a competent producer, the writer’s success is unattainable.”

    Chunky Panday further expressed his views about the series, saying, “The portrayal of the film industry in our series is refreshingly candid. It’s presented in an engaging and aesthetically pleasing manner, infused with a delightful blend of humor and emotions. TVF’s signature touch adds an extra layer of depth to the narrative. While most movies and shows showcase the glamorous facade of the industry, our series depicts the true essence of the film industry, and I am proud to be a part of it.”

    Industry is now streaming exclusively on Amazon miniTV.
