9 months, 50 million views, 3 web series, 6 short
films, the world’s 1st Transgender Band, 1 webby & a
Cannes Grand Prix Glass Lion later, Y-Films, the youth wing of Yash Raj Films
continues to push the envelope putting out path-breaking content. Sex Chat with
Pappu & Papa is the most unique show of it’s kind in India – and probably
the world. A 5-part fiction series premiering on the Y-Films YouTube channel, it
tells a story that will deliver information across different themes related to
sex/ sexuality. From masturbation & periods to condoms, pregnancy and
homosexuality. In a clean, honest style – with a lot of humor. And certainly a
lot of heart.
Starring Anand Tiwari, Kabir Sajid, TV’s
favorite Sanjeeda Shaikh, Dum Lagaa Ke Haisha’s Alka Amin and veteran Sachin
Pilgaonkar, the series marks the directorial debut of Ashish Patil, Head of
Y-Films and has been written by Gopal Datt & Devang Kakkad with story
supervision by Amritpal Bindra & Anand Tiwari. It tells the story of the
Watsa family. Featuring a curious 7-year-old boy, Pappu
– who shoots the most outrageous questions to his Papa, Anand. Who attempts to
answer them to the best of his ability – initially with a lot of awkwardness
and eventually with a lot of fun, simple anecdotes. All this while his own
father – the very traditional, conservative and possibly 'khadoos' Pitaji –
keeps questioning his actions. While his wife, the much pregnant, Shireen and
mother, Mataji get torn between this mad conflict and help Pappu & Papa
find peace, balance and, of course, add a lot of their own masti to it.
Adds producer-director, Ashish Patil,
“The 2nd most populated country in the world, in spite of being the home
of texts and temples such as the Kamasutra & Khajuraho… sex is still a very
taboo topic in India. Most parents clam up when having to talk to kids about
the 'birds & the bees'. Sex education is not even provided in most schools.
And when done - not appropriately curated or delivered. Misinformation or lack
of information cause further confusion and problems. Which is why you have 40-year old
men writing in to sex columns asking if they’ll go blind if they masturbate!
Research clearly shows that sex talk with parents is directly linked to safer
sexual behavior. This is our attempt to bring this important conversation out
of the closet. So come on, let’s talk about sex, baby!”
The series has been heavily researched
and ratified by some of the foremost medical experts, top hormonal,
gynecological doctors of the country. We hope it creates some genuine social
impact, not just locally but globally.
