Of friendships & first jobs
The high of looking forward to a pay check, the new-found sense of responsibility and that giant step towards adulthood makes for a lot of excitement when you land your first job. You’re absolutely ready to make a difference and looking forward to changing the world. But reality bites when you land up at office, only to find that cabins are a distant dream, corner desks are reserved for team favourites and corporate strategy/ presentations take over life. MX Player’s new series Basement Company chronicles the lives of first jobbers Raj, Simran and Rahul who are forced into the basement of their office while it undergoes a major transformation to attract more business.
Battling the expectation vs reality scenario – this trio finds themselves as the unlucky three who’re being shifted to the basement, having to spend their 8-hour workday with spotty wifi, a leaking ceiling and a workspace that they would’ve never imagined calling their own. The show is set in Gurgaon, where these three badnaseeb buddies are put in the wackiest situations as they try to regain their territory upstairs. The five-episode series will stream exclusively on MX Player starting from today, June 24.
