Netflix unveiled the hilarious and heartwarming trailer of its upcoming family comedy Single Papa, introducing viewers to Gaurav Gehlot, a 30-year-old lovable man-child, whose idea of adulting is not worrying about his underwear because his mom still buys them, and counting on timely pocket money from his father. That is, until he leaves his boisterous Indian family absolutely shook by announcing he's adopting a baby.

Created and co-produced by Ishita Moitra and Neeraj Udhwani, with Shashank Khaitan as executive producer, Single Papa is directed by Shashank Khaitan, Hitesh Kewalya and Neeraj Udhwani, and produced by Aditya Pittie and Samar Khan under the Juggernaut Productions banner.

The trailer gives audiences a first look at Gaurav's hilarious yet heartfelt journey as he tries to balance baby bottles with bad decisions, often at the same time. From fumbling with diapers, dodging unsolicited advice from everyone within a 10-km radius, to trying to convince his shocked parents that this is not a prank, the trailer delivers humour, sensitivity, and unapologetic desi drama.

Headlined by Kunal Kemmu, the series also features a stellar ensemble cast including Manoj Pahwa, Ayesha Raza, Prajakta Koli, Neha Dhupia, Suhail Nayyar, Dayanand Shetty, Aisha Ahmed, Dhruv Rathee and Isha Talwar amongst others bringing to life a story that's as funny as it is full of warmth.

Through all the pandemonium, the question remains: Will Gaurav realise that becoming a dad comes with its own challenges? And that, with his delightfully eccentric family, the journey will be equal parts hilarious and heartwarmingly absurd?

Kunal Kemmu, who steps into the role of Gaurav Gahlot says, Playing Gaurav has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. The character is flawed, funny, and fiercely loving just like so many real-life single parents. I think audiences will see themselves and their families in this show. The warmth of every character is what makes this show so special and wholesome!

Prajakta Koli, as Namrata, Gaurav's sister and occasional voice of reason, says, Single Papa highlights what a perfectly imperfect Indian family looks like. Noisy, loving, opinionated, dramatic but always there for each other. I am a single child so I never understood what bickering with siblings felt like before Single Papa. The banter with Kunal, the arguments, the affection, just flowed naturally. I think it's a perfect show to binge watch with your family.

Neha Dhupia who joins the ensemble as the assertive no-nonsense Romilla Nehra, adds, As a parent myself, what touched me the most about Single Papa is how honestly it portrays the chaos, tenderness and imperfections that make families what they are. Parenting is never linear, never perfect, and the show captures that beautifully. It blends humour and heart in a way that feels deeply real. Being a part of this world was incredibly fulfilling, and I can't wait for audiences to feel the warmth, madness and love we've created.

Single Papa promises a cosy, binge-worthy watch that blends comedy, chaos, and real emotion, a slice of life that feels universal, modern, and unmistakably desi.

Single Papa premieres December 12, exclusively on Netflix, bringing laughter, warmth, and full-on desi family drama to audiences everywhere.
