Amazon Prime Video greenlits new original series 'Bandish Bandits'

Amazon Prime Video has given an order for a new original series, titled "Bandish Bandits".

The romantic musical series is created by Still and Still Media Collective and directed by Anand Tiwari, the streaming service said in a statement.

The story, penned by Amritpal Singh Bindra, follows a unique story of two diametrically different personalities -- Radhe and Tamanna -- who, despite coming from very different worlds, set out together on a journey of self-discovery to see if opposites, though they might attract, can also adapt and go the long haul.

Bindra, who will serve as the showrunner on the show, said, "We're thrilled to be partnering with Amazon Prime to tell the story of 'Bandish Bandits'. The show is a millenial love story set against the backdrop of a clash between Pop and Hindustani classical music."
