Mumbai, Jan 23: Seven years ago, Four More Shots Please! didn’t just premiere—it made a cultural statement. With clinking glasses, complicated friendships, and women who were gloriously messy, unapologetic, and real, Season 1 poured itself straight into India’s pop-culture consciousness. What began as a bold, disruptive voice in Indian storytelling soon evolved into a deeply personal series that audiences across geographies, generations, and lived experiences claimed as their own.
From South Bombay to screens around the world, the journeys of four urban women struck a powerful chord. Viewers saw themselves reflected in the ambition, heartbreak, missteps, laughter, and friendships that refused to break. Seven years on, and across four seasons, Four More Shots Please! endures as a comfort watch—chaotic, cathartic, vibrant, and deeply familiar. Its lasting appeal lies in its honesty. The series never tried to please everyone; instead, it told the truth, sparking conversation, debate, loyalty, and an enduring global fan following.
Over the years, the show has quietly transformed lives—emboldening women to take charge of their destinies, make bold choices, nurture deeper friendships, chase ambitions without apology, and open up conversations around personal truths such as sexuality and identity. In doing so, Four More Shots Please! became inseparable from its audience.
Friendship at Its Core
At its heart, the series has always been anchored by friendship. Beneath the impulsive decisions, emotional spirals, and messy realities, the show consistently reinforced that friendships don’t need to be perfect to be real. They can be loud, inconvenient, jealous, forgiving—and still unbreakable. What mattered most was who showed up when everything else fell apart.
Performances That Belonged
Kirti Kulhari, Sayani Gupta, Maanvi Gagroo, and Bani J brought confidence, complexity, and emotional depth to the four central characters, firmly grounding Season 1 and beyond. Strong supporting performances from Lisa Ray, Milind Soman, Simone Singh, Prateik Smita Patil, Neil Bhoopalam, Rajeev Siddhartha, Amrita Puri, Sapna Pabbi, Paras Tomar, Saahil Sehgal, Jiya Lakhiani, and others added richness to the narrative without ever overshadowing its core.
A Visually Indulgent World
Shot by Neha Parti Matiyani, the series embraced a visually immersive language. From sun-washed days to glowing nights, the cinematography used light, spaces, and cityscapes to enhance the emotional rhythm of the story—inviting viewers not just to watch these women live, but to inhabit their world.
Style with Purpose
Fashion in Four More Shots Please! was never incidental. Styled by Aastha Sharma, each character’s wardrobe reflected her evolving inner life—bold, distinct, and intentional. The looks became an extension of storytelling, reinforcing identity, mood, and growth rather than serving as mere aesthetic.
Powered by a Women-Led Vision
The soul of the series extended far beyond the screen. Helmed by women both in front of and behind the camera, Four More Shots Please! was among the first Indian shows to explore women’s desires with unapologetic honesty. Created under the leadership of Rangita Pritish Nandy and Ishita Pritish Nandy, written by Devika Bhagat with dialogues by Ishita Moitra, and directed by Anu Menon, the series came together through a deeply committed creative vision—one that earned it an International Emmy Award nomination.
Seven years since its first pour, Four More Shots Please!, produced by Pritish Nandy Communications, continues to resonate because it chose honesty over perfection. Rooted firmly in friendship and emotional truth, the series grew into more than just a show—it became a cultural conversation that remains relevant, resonant, and deeply loved.
