Love Storiyaan Producer Gives Prime Video Web Series Budget Update

Amazon Prime Video’s latest documentary series, Love Storiyaan, has been the talk of the town for its riveting portrayal of six real-life love stories. Nevertheless, that’s not the sole remarkable characteristic. Producer Somen Mishra recently revealed the series was made on a budget lower than one song of Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani.

Diving into the hearts of individuals who confronted taboos and challenges, Love Storiyaan shines a light on diverse real-life love stories. Each episode unfolds a unique love story, including a couple grappling with the aftermath of war in a foreign land. Under the banner of Dharma’s digital wing, Dharmatic, the series breaks new ground in storytelling.

Behind the scenes, Somen Mishra, the creative producer for Love Storiyaan shared insights into the making of this docuseries. He revealed an interesting anecdote about Karan Johar’s reaction to the budget required for the anthology.

He disclosed, “Karan (Johar) was already shocked by the budget when he told him what we were getting from Amazon. Karan asked, ‘iss budget mein filmein banti hain? (Are films made with this budget?)’ I said of course. Like I remember telling someone that the combined budget of all our six films is less than the budget of one song of Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani.”

Moreover, Mishra emphasized the vision behind Love Storiyaan and how it aligns with the vision of Dharma 2.0. Additionally, he shared how the series came to be.

He revealed, “The idea for Love Storiyaan, the Indian Love Project page is such a lovely page, every day we wake up and read those stories. A lot of these stories were about the people we knew but we didn’t know their stories. The idea was how to present these people who are real and have fought against all odds. So we pitched it as a docuseries and Amazon jumped on it as they didn’t have anything like this on the roster.”

Love Storiyaan is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
