Imtiaz Ali serves as creator, writer, and showrunner to present the series whereas his brother Arif Ali helms the direction. Mohit Choudhary is the executive producer for the title.
Speaking about the project, the ‘Jab We Met’ director said, “O Saathi Re surprised me at every turn of its development. It is a modern story with a vintage heart, an enchanted fairy tale set in the fiasco of metropolitan life.”
“I feel both relieved and excited at having Arif direct the stellar cast of Avinash, Aditi, and Arjun (all aces there) and it is the ever-strengthening relationship with Netflix that enabled us to enter the deceptively charming world of O Saathi Re,” he added.
The series will begin filming soon and will stream on Netflix.
