New Delhi: A road trip with friends is a cinema-trope that we all love to indulge in, because we all secretly wish to be in their place! But three inter-generational women, traveling together to discover themselves and explore their lives from a fresh perspective? Well that is something one seldom hears about. The upcoming Tamil Original series Sweet Kaaram Coffee, is one such story of adventure and self-discovery. A truly unique coming-of-age tale that does not have any age-barriers attached to it! And if that is not a reason enough, check out five more reasons why Sweet Kaaram Coffee is the perfect binge- watch for this weekend.

1. Seasoned and widely-loved star cast

Actors like Lakshmi and Madhoo have carved a niche for themselves in mainstream cinema over the years. Watching them act in these unconventional roles not only increase our respect for them as artists, but also elevates the flavor of such web-shows, which narrate unique stories that need to reach wider audiences across borders. Lakshmi's Julie to Madhoo's Roja- widely loved characters and how! 

2. A Woman’s perspective

Sundari (Lakshmi), Kaveri (Madhoo) and Nivedita (Santhy), is a grandmother, mother and daughter trio who battle with patriarchy all around them on a daily basis. Be it Sundari’s unconventional desires, Kaveri’s need for self-love or Nivedita’s passion for her profession, all three face trouble from the world around them for not fitting into the mold. When these simple wants of women are suffocated by society, we realize what a long way our world needs to go to give women the freedom and space they truly deserve.  

3. Music that resonates with the audience

Sweet Kaaram Coffee’s recently released music album is an amalgamation of songs and tunes that get stuck on repeat inside the head.  Composed by Govind Vasantha, the album features songs sung by popular singers like Javed Ali, Aditya Rao, Kapil Kapilan, Keerthana Vaidyanathan, and Sathyaprakash among others. The soothing baritones alongside soul-stirring music is truly an auditory treat!

4. Bittersweet journey of self-discovery

Sweet Kaaram Coffee is not just a feel good story but also relatable across Pan-Indian audiences. The story’s depth lies in the nuances of the characters and their journey, both outwardly and inwardly. Sundari, Kaveri and Nivedita have had their fair share of challenges, but their zest for life and their determination to overcome these struggles is what hooks you to their adventure.

5. Inter-generational and relatable story

It is refreshing to see three women, from different generations, drawing parallels in their lives against the stifling patriarchy. Sweet Kaaram Coffee shows the essence of how women across ages survive, live and love, and how their stories are worth telling and listening to. It connects with you not because it feels heart-warming but because you see reflections of the women around you in them.

Created by Reshma Ghatala, and produced by Lion Tooth Studios Pvt. Ltd., the heartwarming series is directed by Bejoy Nambiar, Krishna Marimuthu, and Swathi Raghuraaman; and stars Lakshmi, Madhoo, and Santhy. The series will begin streaming on Prime Video starting 6 July in Tamil, along with dubs in Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi.
