    Jio Studios wraps ‘Paan Parda Zarda’, promises to spice up streaming wars

    MUMBAI: If you thought digital dramas were starting to taste bland, Jio Studios is here to shove a mouthful of Paan Parda Zarda down your streaming queue. Imagine mixing action, drama, and intrigue, sprinkling it with gritty central Indian flavours, and serving it hot with an ensemble cast that’s spicier than your grandma’s masala chai. Hungry yet?

    Jio Studios, alongside Reliance Entertainment and Dreamers and Doers Co., has officially wrapped filming its ambitious new web series, Paan Parda Zarda. And, boy, does this sound like a blockbuster recipe.

    Starring an array of talent including Mona Singh, Tanvi Azmi, Tanya Maniktala, Priyanshu Painyuli, Sushant Singh, Rajesh Tailang, and Manu Rishi, this series isn’t just packed—it’s stuffed to the gills with acting chops. Set against the vivid and raw backdrop of central India, the series promises to be a high-voltage narrative filled with compelling characters and edge-of-the-seat drama.

    Directing the chaos (and hopefully keeping actors in line) are industry veterans Gurmmeet Singh, famed for gritty dramas like Mirzapur and Inside Edge, and Shilpi Dasgupta. Supporting this powerful duo are filmmakers Mrighdeep Singh Lamba (Fukrey franchise) and Suparn S Varma (Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hain, Family Man, Rana Naidu). The writing team is equally stacked with talent, featuring the Dalal brothers, Hussain and Abbas (Bambai Meri Jaan, Farzi, Brahmastra), alongside Radhika Anand and Vibha Singh.

    “With its grand scale, gripping screenplay, and a stellar team at its helm, Paan Parda Zarda is poised to be a game-changer in the digital entertainment space,” says Jio Studios. No biggie, just casually promising a digital spectacle.

    Produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Namit Sharma, Paan Parda Zarda is readying itself to invade screens globally. And let’s be honest—who doesn’t love a good cinematic takeover?

    This one promises to leave viewers more hooked than the cliffhanger at the end of your last binge-session.
