The 5 new MX Original Series will appeal to different audiences across varied geographies. Be it Aafat which is about 5 women who are breaking stereotypes while struggling to get married in Delhi’s arranged marketplace; Hey Prabhu that traces the story of a twitter god who has to navigate the offline troubles of life; ImMature, A TVF Creation that is a coming-of-age story about the many first adventures of 3 young boys in school; Lots of Love (in Tamil and Telugu) which is a story of four friends and how a trip changes their lives or Famously Filmfare which goes regional and will see  powerhouse actors like Priyamani, Chinmayee, Bhavana Balakrishnan, Surveen Chawla, Abir Chaterjee and Amruta Khanvilkar turning host for different regions through the series – these are shows championing diverse stories ranging a wide spectrum.
