Speaking on television premier of ‘Not
Fit’ on NDTV Prime, Anirudh Pandita, Co-Founder, Pocket Aces stated, “We are
seeing a renaissance in the content space in India and I’m glad that one of the
foremost television networks in the country has decided to embrace this
positive change. ‘Not Fit’ was our first long form series with our storytelling
brand ‘Dice Media’ and came on the heels of our massive success in the short
video space via our sister brand FilterCopy. The series, which broke away from
hackneyed comedy, was loved by perceptive audiences and has become an example
of intelligent, subtle humor. We are glad that a different audience now gets to
experience the show!”
