Prepare to immerse yourself in a gripping tale of love and revenge as JioCinema brings Doctors, a captivating medical drama set in the high-stakes world of a prestigious hospital. With the trailer now out, the series, directed by Sahir Raza, offers a glimpse into its intense storyline brought to life by an ensemble cast featuring Sharad Kelkar, Harleen Sethi, Aamir Ali, Viraf Patell, and Vivaan Shah. Releasing on December 27th, Doctors promises to be the ultimate binge-worthy experience to end the year on a dramatic high.
Produced by Jyoti Deshpande (Jio Studios) and Alchemy Films Pvt Ltd, the story follows Dr. Nitiya Vasu, played by Harleen Sethi, a determined new resident at the prestigious Elizabeth Blackwell Medical Centre, who arrives with a secret mission of retribution. Driven by the belief that her mentor, the celebrated neurosurgeon Dr. Ishaan Ahuja, portrayed by Sharad Kelkar, is responsible for derailing her brother’s career, Nitiya is set on settling the score. However, as they face the challenges of the high-stakes medical world together, she begins to uncover a side of Ishaan that challenges her convictions—and her heart.
Talking about his role, Sharad Kelkar shares, “As an actor, I love taking on new challenges and stepping out of my comfort zone, and Doctors truly provided that opportunity. Portraying Dr. Ishaan Ahuja has been an exciting and fulfilling experience. He’s a complex character, shaped by his past, yet remains dedicated to his work as a doctor. I spent hours in workshops with real doctors, which gave me a deeper understanding of their work and the emotional challenges they face daily. I’m really looking forward to the audience watching the story and sharing their thoughts.”
Harleen Sethi shares, “Playing Dr. Nitiya Vasu has been an intense and rewarding journey for me. I remember when I first started preparing for the role – it wasn’t just about learning medical terms, but really understanding the emotional depth of a character driven by passion, pain, and purpose. Navigating her feelings in the high-pressure world of medicine was challenging but also very exciting. The whole experience has been a privilege. ‘Doctors’ is a story about resilience, relationships, and redemption, and I’m excited for the audience to join us on this emotional rollercoaster.”
Aamir Ali shares, “Doctors has been quite a journey, both outwardly and inwardly. During the shoot, there were moments that made me reflect on how often we overlook the dedication, attention to detail, and passion doctors bring to their work, and those experiences helped me bring the right emotions to the role. The show is perfect for a family binge-watch during the holidays, and I’m excited to see what the audience thinks of it.”
