Mastram – One teacher, many lessons

For India, there could not have been a more action-packed decade than the 80’s. The ’80s experienced it all – the power, the glory and the agony. But there is one story/evolution that we may or may not be aware of which is that of Mastram, the quintessential writer of this era who spoke the lingo of the Hindi heartland – literally. One teacher and many lessons – his stories were the only guide required to graduate from boys to men.His stimulating books served as the wings to every boy’s imagination and fantasies.

The 10 episodes feature stories of passion intertwined with turbulent day-to-day scenarios from Mastram’s real life. These stories will take you on a whirlwind tour of stimulating tales that will transport you into the bygone era of the ’80s and introduce you to the game changer – “Mastram”. The series stars an ensemble cast with Anshuman Jha, Tara Alisha Berry, Aakash Dabhade, Rani Chatterjee, Jagat Rawat, Kenisha Awasthi, Garima Jain, IshaChabbra and Aabha Paul in key roles. A mature web narrative of the only self-help book you’ll need, Mastram promises to be the perfect show to watch during this time of social distancing.
