Imtiaz Ali's Netflix series O Saathi Re, starring Aditi Rao Hydari, Arjun Rampal, and Avinash Tiwary, is set to premiere on December 4. Described as a modern tale with a vintage heart, the show explores contemporary human emotions and is directed by Arif Ali, with Imtiaz Ali as the creator and showrunner.

Imtiaz Ali's Netflix series O Saathi Re, which was announced in March 2025, will finally premiere on Netflix on December 4.

Starring Aditi Rao Hydari, Arjun Rampal and Avinash Tiwary in lead roles and billed as a "captivating exploration of contemporary human emotions," the show is written, created and show-run by Imtiaz Ali and directed by his brother Arif Ali.

Sharing the poster on its official Instagram account, Netflix wrote, "O Saathi Re..the love story of a separating couple. Watch O Saathi Re, out 4 December, only on Netflix."

In March last year, Imtiaz Ali said that he felt "surprised" him at every turn of the show's development. Calling it a modern story with a vintage heart, the filmmaker said it is an "enchanted fairy tale set in the fiasco of metropolitan life."

Hydari also opened up about being part of O Saathi Re in an interview with THR India at the 79th Cannes Film Festival this year. The actor described it as "very difficult." "It's a world I have never inhabited before, but also very juicy,” she had expressed.

While Hydari was last seen in Vishal Bhardwaj's segment of Lust Stories 3 in September this year, she will next appear alongside Pankaj Tripathi in the slice-of-life comedy film Parivarik ManuRanjan, set to premiere on Sony LIV on November 13.

Rampal has been part of an impressive slate of releases this year. The actor is in the suspense thriller Blind Game, which released just a day ago, on November 11, and appeared in the political drama and Diljit Donsanjh-starrer Satluj and in Dhurandhar: The Revenge prior to that. Rampal is next set to appear in the heist thriller 3 Monkeys, slated for a December 4 worldwide release.

As for Tiwary, the actor was last seen in Ginny Weds Sunny 2 in April this year and in Vishal Bhardwaj's O'Romeo in February, starring alongside Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri.
