Light-hearted entertainment, though not entirely fresh or extraordinary, tends to sell well on OTT platforms, especially when the production quality is good and the show features a decent cast.
Bench Life falls into this category, offering a fun watch set in a posh IT office environment, with a strong star cast including Rajendra Prasad and Vaibhav Reddy.
The friends gang, featuring Charan Peri and his wife, Nayan Sarika, is perfectly cast. Venkatesh Kakumanu and others bring a good vibe, while Aakanksha Singh adds a modern appeal to the show.
Though there isn’t anything particularly groundbreaking, a show like this is an easy pick for home audiences. It provides some nice, heartfelt laughs and moves along smoothly.
If you’re not picky and are looking for an easy and light way to pass the time, you might enjoy this. Currently, Bench Life is streaming on SonyLIV in its Telugu version.
