Mumbai: Amazon miniTV – Amazon’s free video streaming service on the Amazon shopping app, Playstore and Fire TV, today unveiled the endearing trailer for the third season of its family drama – TVF’s Yeh Meri Family. Set in the spring of 1995, the third season promises to take audiences down a heart-warming memory lane with the Awasthi family as they bring to life the story of a typical Indian household.

As the Awasthi family navigates the intricacies of life, the trailer takes you back in time to the spring of the 90s. It evokes nostalgia for the good old days and unbreakable friendships, with every moment beautifully blending warmth, humour, and nostalgia. When waking up to the loud alarm clocks and winning over a fun banter with your sibling was your biggest flex. The trailer demonstrates how idyllic and simple life was in the era, with a close-knit family unit. It offers a preview of the show’s plot, from the playful banter between Rishi and Ritika to the persistent nagging of their parents. Focusing on realistic scenes and emotions, the trailer of Yeh Meri Family is a heartfelt journey for viewers, brimming with bittersweet memories of “kuch khatti-kuch meethi.”
Juhi Parmar, who plays the character of Neerja shared her thoughts on the series, “I believe that people nowadays are looking for relatable storylines and characters, and Yeh Meri Family is one such show that evokes a variety of emotions. Blending a compelling plot with 90s nostalgia, the show is heavy on emotions and circumstances that we have all experienced. Considering the overwhelming support, we received from viewers for the past seasons, we are thrilled to announce the third season. This season’s point of view differs from the previous seasons as it is narrated by the family’s youngest member, a 10-year-old. We hope the audience likes the show as much as we did while creating it.”
“We are thrilled to announce the highly anticipated return of ‘Yeh Meri Family’ for its third season, capturing the essence of 90s nostalgia once again. Following the tremendous success of YMF 1&2, this season dives into the enchanting world of monsoons, promising our viewers an immersive journey down memory lane.

Samay Raina returns with Still Alive, confronts 2025 controversy in bold comeback special
Comeback set tackles controversy, blending humour with raw storytelling
MUMBAI: Samay Raina is set to release his new stand-up comedy special, Still Alive, on YouTube on April 7, 2026, marking a high-profile return following a turbulent year.
The trailer for the special dropped on April 5, offering a glimpse into what Raina describes as a raw and unfiltered set that leans as much on honesty as it does on humour.
Positioned as a comeback of sorts, Still Alive draws heavily from the controversy surrounding his show India’s Got Latent in early 2025. The episode led to legal trouble, multiple FIRs, and a lengthy six-hour interrogation by the Maharashtra Cyber Cell, placing the comedian at the centre of intense public scrutiny.
Rather than sidestep the episode, Raina leans into it. The special reflects on the fallout and his personal journey through it, blending observational comedy with moments of emotional candour. Early audience feedback from live performances suggests the tone is less about rapid-fire punchlines and more about storytelling with bite.
The special was filmed during his global Still Alive & Unfiltered tour, which ran from August 2025 to early 2026. The tour saw Raina perform across major international venues, including the Madison Square Garden Theatre in New York, a milestone that places him among the youngest Indian comedians to take that stage.
The title itself signals resilience. “Still Alive” is a nod to navigating both legal and public backlash while choosing to remain unapologetically authentic, a theme that appears to anchor the set.
With the special set to premiere online, all eyes are now on how audiences respond to a performance that promises equal parts reflection and wit. For Raina, the message is clear. He is not just back, he is ready to be heard on his own terms.
