The series is an erotic comedy-drama that features a different story in each episode. Most of the themes of the show revolve around different aspects of sexual relationships. The series, which first came out in 2018, has been mired in controversies ever since a complaint was filed against the makers in 2020, for allegedly having several objectionable scenes related to a soldier’s wife.
