The new series, Dharma Sankat — starring Roshni Bhattacharya and Satyam Bhattacharya — is set to stream from May 25 on Fridaay, the OTT platform of Camellia Productions. The series follows Souvik, who is a soft-hearted, grounded man in his 30s, raised in a conservative Brahmin household by a deeply religious mother. Quiet, obedient, and a self-confessed “momma’s boy,” he leads a disciplined life. One night, in an attempt to shake off his boring image, he visits a nightclub — only to land in a hilariously awkward mishap with a woman named Mou.
The next day, fate strikes a strange chord when Mou walks into Souvik’s office as the newest intern on his team. For Souvik, it's love at first sight. Mou, however, takes her time. At first, she finds him uptight and socially awkward, but soon discovers the sweet, caring, and funny side of him. Slowly, through shared work, coffee breaks, and late-night chats, their bond deepens into love.
What started as a light-hearted romance suddenly becomes a storm of emotional and cultural dilemmas. What follows is a journey filled with tension, laughter, heartbreak, and resilience. Souvik and Mou must now navigate a world where family expectations and deep-rooted traditions collide with personal choice.
A moment from the series
"Dharma Sankat is a simple love story. The story in itself is very relevant, rather has been relevant for ages. The series gives a glimpse into the ordeals or the demands faced by people, just to be with a person they truly love, in our society, because of the dwindling tolerance level. I am really happy that our work is reaching the audience. I remember it being a fun but very hectic shoot, so definitely a lot of sweat and love went into the making of this. I am hoping that the series will bring in a new perspective on love," said Roshni. The series is directed by Vhik and Sahin Akter. "I was drawn to this narrative because it doesn’t preach; it lives. It shows that peace is not the absence of conflict, but the courage to love in spite of it. Through every crack and compromise, the series speaks of co-existence— not as fantasy, but as fragile, hopeful truth," said co-director Vhik.
