Who doesn’t like web series to enjoy over a weekend?

Who doesn’t love watching original web series on streaming platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hotstar?

Be it work, education or other tasks, every individual has errands to run and one can’t dedicate an entire week or month to a web series. But what to do with the itch and impatience that emerges inside us when there are still some episodes of our favourite web series left to watch.

The suspense of what will happen next, the thrill of watching our favourite characters making it till the ends and awaiting the next season, there are many things that keep original lovers as us intrigued.
