Pritish Nandy Communications to produce series for Amazon Prime
MUMBAI: Last week saw the high profile launch of Amazon’s Prime Video service in Mumbai. The video on demand OTT platform announced a slew of tieups with different production houses which would be rolling out original content for it.
Now Pritish Nandy Communications has informed the Bombay stock exchange that it is partnering with Amazon Prime Video. The company said that it would be developing a 10-12 part series for Amazon Prime titled 4 More Shots Please. The series is being penned by Meenakshi Reddy Madhavan while it has been created by Rangita Pritish Nandy. Its digital wing is headed by Ishita Pritish Nandy.
This could come as a shot in the arm for the company which earlier this year reported a loss of Rs 70 lakh on an income of Rs 24 lakh in the quarter ended 30 September 2016.
