It is directed by Manasa Sharma, the show talks about discovering new passions and finding purpose in the most unexpected places. It features a perfect blend of laughter, heart, and a unique perspective on contemporary work culture in India.

She further mentioned, “But through Balu, Meenakshi, Isha, Ravi and his friends, we hope to show that even in the most unexpected circumstances, there are opportunities for growth and fulfilment. Bench Life is a celebration of resilience, friendship, and the pursuit of happiness”.
