Netflix has unveiled the first look of its upcoming Hindi comedy series ‘Single Papa’, starring Kunal Kemmu in a heartwarming yet chaotic family entertainer. Set to premiere on December 12, the show introduces Kemmu as Gaurav Gehlot, a carefree man whose life turns upside down when he unexpectedly discovers a baby in his car — thrusting him into instant fatherhood.
The first clip, released by Netflix India, sets the tone for a fun mix of confusion, comedy, and emotion. Gaurav’s family, played by Manoj Pahwa, Ayesha Raza, and Prajakta Koli, reacts with absolute disbelief before collectively scrambling to figure out how to care for the surprise infant. Their expressions of shock quickly shift to a messy but hilarious attempt at problem-solving, capturing the relatable chaos of Indian family life.
Sharing the clip, Netflix wrote:
“Ek nayi shuruaat in the Gehlot parivaar. Kya ye family of chaos bann payegi a family of five? Watch Single Papa, out 12 December, only on Netflix.”
Created under the supervision of showrunner Shashank Khaitan, Single Papa blends humor with heartfelt storytelling. The first look highlights quirky family dynamics, witty exchanges, relatable middle-class concerns, and the classic “log kya kahenge” mindset, all wrapped in the madness of an unpredictable household.
From misplacing baby socks to losing patience, the clip hints at Gaurav’s hilarious journey from being a carefree adult to a responsible (and clueless) parent. Yet, beneath the comedy, the series aims to explore the emotional layers of family, belonging, and unconditional love.
In a statement, Kunal Kemmu said:
“Single Papa shows the messy, colorful chaos that makes a family special. Playing Gaurav, who is figuring out how to be a dad, made me laugh, cry, and reminded me how much parenting is trial and error — and a whole lot of love. I’m excited for everyone to meet my cute baby and join this joyride with my Great Indian Family!”
His words underline the show’s emphasis on warmth, connection, and the unpredictable challenges of raising a child against all odds.
With its mix of comedy, confusion, and emotion, Single Papa promises to be a refreshing and relatable watch for modern Indian audiences when it arrives on Netflix this December.
