The series will also feature Brandon Mychal Smith, Zoe Boyle, Jennie Jacques, Guz Khan, Nikesh Patel, Rebecca Rittenhouse and John Reynolds.

Actor Harish Patel, who has featured in "Zubeidaa", "Gupt: The Hidden Truth", "Mohra" and others, will also star in the series.

Written and executive produced by Kaling and Matt Warburton, the series will follow four American school friends named Maya (Emmanuel), Craig (Mychal Smith), Ainsley (Rittenhouse) and Duffy (Reynolds) who reunite when they find themselves invited to a wedding in London. But they must weather a tumultuous year of romance and heartbreak after a bombshell at the altar throws their lives into turmoil.

The series will go into production in 2019. Tracey Wigfield, Jonathan Prince, Howard Klein, Charlie Grandy, Tristram Shapeero and Charles McDougall will also serve as the executive producers.
