Amazon MX Player recently unveiled the highly awaited dramedy Fisaddi. The coming-of-age series explores the dynamics between two brothers — Goldie, a ‘local legend’ living the ultimate hostel life until his younger brother Vimal, who enrols in the same college and quickly begins outclassing him, leading to unexpected twists and turns in their relationship. Boasting of a talented cast, the series features Bhuvan Arora, Poojan Chhabra, Gopal Datt, Rajesh Jais and Priyal Mahajan.

About his comic timing, Gopal said, “I don’t know where I got this from, but I believe my extensive theatre experience has shaped it. In theatre, you quickly gauge the audience’s reaction, recognising what resonates and what doesn’t. This method has been invaluable for me; over a period of time, you learn to discover what the audience will love, where they will engage, and where they might not. I believe theatre deserves credit for that.”
