About Single Papa
Gaurav Gehlot, a practical but lovable misfit in a city, believes his life is orderly until a baby lands in the back of his car. The moment that passenger is found, everything shifts from routine errands to a test of courage and judgment. The baby becomes a catalyst that unsettles his habits, his stubborn independence, and his loyalty to a family that loves to weigh in on decisions. Across a chorus of opinionated relatives, an adoption system that moves slowly, and a society quick to judge, Gaurav must decide what kind of father he wants to be. The show follows his misadventures with feeds, naps, and first choices, balancing humor with honesty while asking what family means in the world.
Directed by Shashank Khaitan and created by Neeraj Udhwani and Ishita Moitra, Single Papa is an original series that premieres in 2025 on a platform. The ensemble includes Kunal Khemu, Neha Dhupia, Manoj Pahwa, Prajakta Koli and Ayesha Raza Mishra.
Reception leans into the show's blend of humor and heart as it examines single parenting, community support, and renegotiating traditional family roles. Critics praise the dialogue, cast chemistry, and the way the series handles serious moments without tipping into sentimentality. Prajakta Koli and Ayesha Raza Mishra add depth with supporting turns.
As of now there are no major awards announced for Single Papa. The series has sparked conversations about parenting and modern family life, with praise directed at the cast's chemistry and Khaitan's confident storytelling that keeps episodes moving, building positive chatter among viewers.
With its timely premise, the show holds potential for lasting cultural impact by normalizing diverse family configurations and open talk about responsibility and support networks. If it resonates, lines and moments may echo in conversations and social media, extending the show's influence beyond the screen and into daily life.
