The actor in Alia Bhatt is spending her days shooting for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War, while the producer in her is simultaneously building her banner, Eternal Sunshine Productions’ slate. So, what’s next after Jigra (2024), her last production? Sources tell us that Bhatt is making a young adult web series with Amazon Prime Video, marking her second collaboration with the streamer after Poacher (2024).    

From what we’ve heard, the series’ final draft is being worked upon. A source reveals, “It’s a high-concept, young adult series set in an urban Indian college campus—think slice-of-life meets coming-of-age. The narrative plays out from the point of view of two young couples.” Casting is underway, with an emphasis on new faces. Bhatt has apparently made it clear that she wants to back fresh talent through the project. “Alia wants the show to feel authentic. She is certain that the chosen faces should be real-life 20-somethings, whom the audience can relate to. Four fresh faces will be launched with the series,” says a casting insider.
