Comedy series Half Pants Full Pants to stream on Prime Video
The 8-episode series stars child actors Ashwanth Ashokkumar and Kartik Vijan along with Ashish Vidyarthi and Sonali Kulkarni
Prime Video today announced the premiere of its new comedy-drama series Half Pants Full Pants on December 16.
The 8-episode series centres on childhood and stars child actors Ashwanth Ashokkumar and Kartik Vijan along with Ashish Vidyarthi and Sonali Kulkarni. Adapted from Anand Suspi’s eponymous book, Half Pants Full Pants is set in a small town in South India, before the age of the internet and mobiles, where the adventurous and ambitious 7-year-old boy Anand aka Dabba lives. He and his friend, the obedient and well-mannered Giddi, go on fun-filled adventures.
“Half Pants Full Pants is an experience that takes us back to a simpler time where life was untouched by technology and yet sparkling with wonder. Through the story of Dabba, his family, and friends the series captures the magic of childhood in a period without phones or the internet - an unhurried pace of life that we often yearn for," said director V. K. Prakash.
He continued, “The cast and crew unanimously gravitated towards telling this story because of its simplicity and innocence. We cannot wait to share this with the world.”
“Half Pants Full Pants is a wholesome show that will resonate with viewers because of its universal theme of exploring childhood nostalgia in the 1980s," said Akansh Gaur, Creative Head of OTT Content, OML Entertainment. “The joy of discovery and the fickleness of dreams told through the eyes of a 7-year-old is something that we believe will engage viewers."
