What Imtiaz Ali Said About O Saathi Re
Speaking about the project, Imtiaz Ali described it as a contemporary romantic story that explores the changing equation between a couple going through a divorce.
He said, “O Saathi Re is a modern romantic show with a vintage heart. Sometimes, love surprises you by showing itself in the most unexpected corners. This is the story of the growth of affection in a divorcing couple. Affection has a throbbing heart, love is beautiful, but a relationship can be unequal. To be a matched couple can often be a burden."
He added, "In O Saathi Re, we see that while love is yearning, dreaming, and getting together, it can also be the process of letting go. The characters are multi-layered and lifelike, which is why we went for the highest grade of actors. The cast negotiates steep curves and sensitive moments in the captainship of Arif Ali, the director.”
