CHENNAI: Vikranth is all set to make his OTT debut with LBW–Love Beyond Wicket, which is set to premiere on JioHotstar from January 1.
Written by Aruna Rakhee and directed by Ganesh Karthikeyan, the cricket-based series unfolds the story of Rangan, a once-promising cricketer whose career never took flight. Now a reluctant coach, Rangan is tasked with training an underdog team in a struggling cricket academy, determined to revive its lost legacy. “To make my OTT debut with a series rooted in cricket makes it even more special. Cricket has always been very close to my heart, and LBW allowed me to explore that connection in a deeply emotional way. I’m truly excited for audiences to experience this journey,” Vikranth said.
Produced by AteleFactory, the star cast includes Sindhu Shyam, Niyathi, Harish, Ayaz Khan, Akshatha, Naveen, Nikhil Nair, and Viswa Mithran, among others.
