The year 2017 has been full of experiments across genres thanks to web series and the trend of binge-watching that comes with it. So if you weren’t too hooked up to the latest episode of Sasural Simar Ka, or the controversial and now off-air Pehredaar Piya ki or the absurd tasks that shows like Fear Factor and Splitsvilla would have people do on national television, then here is a list of Indian web series that managed to strike a chord with the millennials that you should be binging on right about now:
1. Tripling: This web series shows a complex sibling bond that is interwoven with a trip. The 3 siblings are juggling with their own lives when a trip brings them together and despite their differences, they are forced to spend time with each other.

3. Inside Edge: A show about fictional cricket league in India and the dirty politics that goes into the fixing of the games. The show looks at the roots of why and how match fixing takes place in the country and is totally an addictive watch.
4. Humorously Yours: The story of an average stand-up comic who is trying to make it big in the industry is one helluva of a ride. Vipul Goyal juggles the pressures of performing at big events without getting noticed, struggles to grab eyeballs in a world of PR-induced comedy and fights writer’s block with his wife for support. This show will tickle your funny bone and make you root for the underdog, Vipul.
