This refers to original, often low-to-mid-budget digital series produced in South Asia (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal). Unlike mainstream Bollywood or Lollywood productions, these series are produced exclusively for Over-The-Top (OTT) platforms, Telegram channels, or dedicated websites. They focus on raw, realistic storytelling—often dealing with mature themes like infidelity, urban relationships, political intrigue, and social taboos.
