A one-of-its-kind young adult web series, Gamerlog, set against the backdrop of the esports world, was officially announced at Amazon MX Player’s StreamNext event in India last evening. The series promises to explore the highs and lows of competitive gaming, shedding light on the struggles, ambitions, and personal journeys of its characters.
Gamerlog stars Darsheel Safary, who is best known for his role in Taare Zameen Par, alongside Anjali Sivaraman. The series is helmed by director Arya Deo and produced by Abhinay Deo and Neeta Shah under the banner of RDP Pulp Fiction Entertainment.
Reflecting on his OTT debut, Darsheel Safary expressed his excitement and nervousness, saying, “As a huge gaming fan myself, I’m thrilled to be making my OTT debut with Gamerlog, and I must admit, I’m both nervous and excited! What really drew me in was how the show goes beyond just gaming—it dives into the personal dynamics between these incredibly real, relatable characters. This role is a departure from anything I’ve done before, and I’m eager to see how the audience responds.”
He further added, “It’s been so much fun being part of this project, especially with a young, energetic team. The shoot itself was an absolute blast—every day on set was filled with laughter, creativity, and some unforgettable moments. Working alongside the talented Arya Deo as director and amazing producers Abhinay Deo and Neeta Shah made this experience truly special. It’s been a journey I’ll always remember.”
As gaming continues to be a significant part of the digital era, Gamerlog aims to present a compelling narrative that goes beyond the thrill of victory and the sting of defeat, emphasizing the human emotions and relationships at play within the esports ecosystem. The show is slated to premiere mid this year.
