Amazon MX Player, the free streaming service from Amazon, has officially unveiled its upcoming series, Gamerlog, by launching an exciting trailer for this highly anticipated comedy-drama. Produced by Abhinay Deo and Neeta Shah under the RDP Pulp Fiction Entertainment banner and directed by Arya Deo, the series is set against the dynamic backdrop of India’s rapidly growing E-sports gaming culture. It aims to provide a fresh, engaging, and emotionally resonant view of the competitive landscape and the pursuit of success. The series stars a talented young cast including Darsheel Safary, Anjali Sivaraman, Chinmay Chandraunshuh, Kunal Bhan, Chetan Dhawan, Shubroy Chowdhury, and Akash Menon in key roles. Gamerlog will be available for free streaming on Amazon MX Player starting June 12.
The trailer portrays the journey of Raghu, also known as Maverick, a reserved and talented young gamer who leaves his small-town life against his parents’ wishes to pursue his dreams within Mumbai’s vibrant gaming scene. During his journey, he encounters a quirky group called ‘Team Gamerlog,’ led by the ambitious and focused Joanna, along with team members Lalit, Jaggi, Saurabh, and Mahesh. As they engage in esports battles and navigate inner conflicts, emotional challenges, and unexpected partnerships, this thrilling adventure of friendship, love, jealousy, betrayal, and drama culminates in a showdown at “The Tournament of Champions,” India’s premier E-sports competition.
Reflecting on his role as Raghu, Darsheel Safary expressed, “Gamerlog presents a universe I could immediately connect with. Although it centers around gaming, the narrative delves much deeper, portraying the emotional ups and downs that young people go through. It’s a series that is enjoyable, relatable, and perfect for not just passionate gamers but families as well. Collaborating with Abhinay, Neeta, and the talented debut director Arya was an incredible experience.”
Producer and Creative Producer Abhinay Deo shared, “When Neeta and I first encountered this story, we were captivated by the intricacies and depth of the gaming world. With Gamerlog, we aimed to depict the high-stakes arena of E-sports while also examining the emotional challenges facing youth today. The show is fast-paced, lively, and entertaining; however, at its heart, it addresses themes of vulnerability, loyalty, and resilience. Arya, who has been my assistant for a long time and has a profound understanding of this environment, was the ideal choice to bring our vision to fruition. We are excited to partner with Amazon MX Player to bring Gamerlog to the audience and eagerly anticipate introducing viewers to these characters and their unpredictable journey.”
Gamerlog will be available for free streaming on Amazon MX Player starting June 12, accessible via its apps on mobile devices, Amazon’s shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, and Connected TVs.
