Streaming service Prime Video yesterday announced its new original series ‘Maa Ka Sum’, starring versatile actor Mona Singh and Mihir Ahuja of ‘The Archies’ fame in the lead roles. The eight-episode light-hearted drama follows the bond between a single mother and her 19-year-old son, built on friendship and mutual trust.

The show, which will make its debut on Prime Video on April 3, is written by Ravinder Randhawa and Sumrit Shahi , directed by Nicholas Kharkongor and produced by Babita Ashiwal under Eunoia Films. It also features Angira Dhar and Ranveer Brar in pivotal roles, a PTI report stated yesterday.

The show centres on Agastya (Ahuja), a bright math prodigy in his late teens, who sees the world through graphs, numbers and algorithms.

“For him, every problem has a logical solution, even finding the perfect partner for his single mother Vinita (Singh). Enter Project Mom: Equation ya Emotion?

“But what begins as Agastya’s carefully crafted plan soon turns into a quirky and heart-warming ride, where logic collides with real emotions, unexpected encounters, and the unpredictability of life. With humour, warmth and a touch of math, ‘Maa Ka Sum’ offers a fresh and layered take on the mother-son dynamic,” read the official plotline.

Nikhil Madhok, Director and Head of Originals at Prime Video India, said the series captures the mother-son bond “with a rare freshness and emotional depth.”

“Stories rooted in relationships have a timeless appeal because they reflect emotions and bonds that feel deeply universal… This series captures the tenderness, friction, and quiet understanding of this bond in an honest and deeply relatable way. Mona and Mihir are terrific in their roles,” he said in a statement.

Producer Ashiwal said the series was rooted in humour and “the little lessons we all pick up while figuring life out.” ‘Maa Ka Sum’ will be available for streaming in Hindi, with subtitles in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam.
