A title like Hiccups And Hookups gives a clear idea that the show will be a modern saga set in an urban household in India. The teaser for the show confirms this.
The teaser features a small scene from the show involving divorced mother Vasudha Rao (Lara Dutta Bhupathi), her brother (Prateik Babbar) and her daughter (Shinnova), all living under the same roof. But it gives ample information about the show and its characters.
Vasudha is eager to resume dating, now that she is single again. Her brother comes across a guy on a dating site and shows his profile to her. She is impressed, but that’s when her daughter reveals that the guy is her ex-boyfriend. Vasudha is shocked to know that her daughter was dating a guy 10 years older than her. To this, the daughter points out that Vasudha, too, is 10 years older than the guy.
Going by the teaser, Hiccups And Hookups looks like a fun show catering to the adult urban audience. At the same time, it highlights an undercurrent of bonding between the three characters. Dutta, Babbar and Shinnova look like people from the same family.
Directed by Kunal Kohli, the show is the Hindi adaptation of the US show Casual on Lionsgate Play. Hiccups And Hookups is the first Indian production of the international platform. It will be streamed from 26 November. Watch the teaser below and let us know if you are keen to watch the show.
