A show can do well without bloodshed and abusive language: Producer Aarrav Jindal

It has been around two weeks that the MX player web show

Runaway Lugaai

produced by Aarrav Jindal starring Sanjay Mishra, Naveen Kasturia, Ruhi Singh, Aarya Babbar, Pankaj Jha and others started streaming and the light hearted show directed by Avinash Das, set in the heartland with a story of an underdog has found resonance with the audiences.

Ask Producer Aarrav Jindal on what was the reason behind choosing a script like this while crime shows have been doing well on

OTT

platforms. Aarrav who himself has produced crime shows for television, says, “

Often

, nowadays we are seeing that the shows which are getting a lot of viewership have a lot of bloodshed or abusive language.

But as a producer, I feel that all of this can be avoided if it is not blending in properly with the story. You don't need to add these elements to make your story worth watching. If you see 'Runaway Lugaai', there's not even a single kiss involved! And yet people are liking the show. As an industry, we also need to make content which a family can sit together and watch. I believe even a show talking about harsh realities do not necessarily need to have bloodshed and abusive language. Scam 1992 is a great example of the fact that a show can do well without bloodshed and abusive language.”
