Star TV India’s video-on-demand service, Hotstar will be streaming its first original short fiction ‘Tanhaiyan’ featuring Barun Sobti and Surbhi Jyoti.

The Gul Khan produced series consists of ten-episodes lasting 20 minutes each. It will air from mid-January 2017.

In the show, Sobti plays the role of Haider, while the other lead Surbhi Jyoti will be seen playing the role of Meera Kapoor. Kapoor is in love with Haider, who is seen flirting with girls.

Khan said, “Someone once asked me what’s the why of Tanhayian.. Well there isn’t a person who hasn’t experienced the loss of a loved one.. And every time we lose someone it changes who we are….So here are two people who are dealing with that loss in their own different way.. But sometimes someone walks right into that loneliness and Phir aap tanhayion mein bhi Tanha nahi rehte… Tanhaiyaan is a tribute to that magic…”

Hotstar entered into the original content production with a talk show hosted by RJ Malishka called ‘M Bole Toh’. It also aired a 20 episodic news comedy series ‘On Air with AIB’ with 10 in English and 10 in Hindi. The streaming platform is also rumoured to bring the second season of the show soon.

It had also brought back its popular TV fiction show Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon as a Hotstar Original after a gap of three years.
