“There is massive demand for original digital content in India across genres. We believe Laughter Games will be first of many digital properties that will provide such original content on a consistently scheduled basis,” says OML CEO Ajay Nair. 

Put Chutney are all set with ‘Ctrl+Alt+Del’, while Enna Da Rascals are bringing the series, ‘Black Sheep’. Sameer Pitalwalla, CEO of Culture Machine says, “Laughter Games is an affirmation of the coming of age of digital storytelling. It has allowed our creative teams to expand their palette and to commit to long form digital content, that’s also supported ably in both monetisation and distribution by the world’s largest and most digital video platform.” 

‘Ctrl+Alt+Del’ is the story of a 26-year-old software engineer, who is confronted with the uncomfortable truth that he is fit only for arranged marriage and how he finds comfort with four friends who are hell bent on setting his life on an unexpected course. ‘Black Sheep’ is about the serious efforts that are put in the comedy business. Two young enterprising and misguided entrepreneurs capture what really happens behind the scenes.
