Mumbai, November 4, 2024: Amazon MX Player, Amazon's free video streaming platform, recently released the bromance drama, Fisaddi. Set in Allahabad University, the series follows the story of two brothers, Goldie and Vimal, whose relationship is tested by insecurities, rivalry, and the pressures of college life. Despite his charismatic reputation, Goldie struggles to live up to the expectations as the “local legend” of his hostel, while Vimal, his younger brother, grabs attention as the more academically gifted sibling. Featuring Bhuvan Arora, Poojan Chhabra, Gopal Datt, Rajesh Jais, and Priyal Mahajan in key roles, Fisaddi explores the nuances of brotherhood, the emotional conflicts between family members, and the bittersweet journey of self-discovery.

Poojan Chhabra, who essays the role of Vimal in the series, opened up about his strong connection with his co-star Bhuvan Arora, sharing how their bond developed naturally over time. He expressed, "My bond with Bhuvan grew stronger with every passing day, and now, I genuinely feel like I’ve gained an elder brother for life. To be honest, before we started shooting, I was nervous about how I'd even break the ice with him. We’ve all seen him in Farzi – he’s such a brilliant actor, and honestly, I’m a fan. It was nothing short of a dream to work with him. When I first watched him in Farzi, I was like, 'Wow, he’s amazing!' But when we met, he was so relaxed and down-to-earth. He helped me break the ice, we’d go over scenes together, hang out at his place, and play with his dog."

Poojan continued, "Slowly, our bond grew deeper. Even though there’s a significant age gap, we both come from Delhi and share a similar journey in the industry, facing the same challenges and sacrifices as artists. I learned so much from him, both on and off the set. Usually, the bond that actors form during shooting fades after the project wraps, but with Bhuvan, it’s different. We’re still in touch, and I hope our bond keeps getting stronger. The brotherhood we’ve built is something I’ll forever cherish."
