Some of the finest actors from the Indian film industry like Suhasini Maniratnam, Revathy, Nithya Menen, Aadhi Pinisetty, Ritu Varma, Naresh, Abijeet Duddala to rising talent like Komalee Prasad, Naresh Agastya and Ulka Gupta come together in this series, making these characters relevant and want to tug at your heartstrings.
An eclectic set of creators : Modern Love Hyderabad is Amazon Prime Video’s first Telugu Original that reinstates the streaming service’s commitment to creating stories that are rooted in the local ethos and culture.
