Rajkumar Hirani’s first web show Pritam and Pedro to stream on JioHotstar from July 3

Sometimes, the biggest stories start with the strangest clues. Imagine an old ATM on a beach, two men who don’t seem to fit together standing next to it, and a mystery that makes you want to know more right away. *Pritam and Pedro* is Rajkumar Hirani’s first streaming show, and it marks his big debut on JioHotstar. This project brings his special style of storytelling—full of warmth, emotion, and human connection—into the world of long-form streaming for the first time. It’s also a big step for mixing great cinema with modern streaming entertainment, offering viewers something new and exciting to experience.

*Pritam and Pedro*, directed by Avinash Arun, has just the right amount of charm to draw people in.

 It shows a world that feels real and full of surprises, while keeping the main story a mystery.

Alok Jain, Head of Hindi & English Entertainment Business at JioStar, said: “At JioHotstar, we believe in stories that feel personal yet universal.

 They should have warmth, humor, emotion, and a real connection to people. Rajkumar Hirani has shaped this kind of storytelling in a unique and consistent way. We are really excited to work with him as he starts his streaming journey, and we can’t wait to bring his special voice to our audience across the country.”

Speaking about the project, Rajkumar Hirani said: “I love stories where people from very different backgrounds end up together and have to deal with life in surprising ways.

 *Pritam and Pedro* has humor, heart, and a lot of fun. The long-form format let us spend more time with the characters and really get to know their journey. It was a great experience, and I’m happy to be working with JioHotstar on this.”
