The trailer of Richa Chadha’s upcoming non-fiction show, Musafiri, was unveiled on Friday (September 18,2026). Hosted, produced and written by Richa, the eight-episode series will premiere on Phull Stop, the new YouTube channel launched by her and Ali Fazal. The first episode is set to drop on September 25, followed by a new episode every Friday.

The trailer opens with Richa reflecting on motherhood and the way becoming a mother made her look at the familiar with an entirely new sense of wonder. She turns the gaze towards Mumbai through the series, asking a simple question - How well does she really know the city that has given her so much? The series seeks to look beyond the obvious, venturing into its lesser-known histories, overlooked spaces, fascinating characters and untold stories.

Speaking about Musafiri, Richa said in a statement, “Motherhood changed the way I look at the world. It makes you curious all over again , you start questioning things you have taken for granted, looking at the familiar with a completely different sense of wonder. I found myself asking so many questions about the city I have lived in for years. Do I really know Mumbai? How much of this city do I actually know? And a question that stayed with me was, a city that has given me so much, what do I owe it in return?

“I have always been curious about history, art, culture and people. I was a history honours student and grew up in a family where academics and curiosity were very much a part of our lives. Musafiri felt like a natural extension of that part of me. It is my attempt to travel through a city I thought I knew, but with fresh eyes.”

It is produced by Pushing Buttons Studios.

Musafiri marks the second production under Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal’s Pushing Buttons Studios, following the acclaimed Girls Will Be Girls, which went on to win major honours at Sundance with Chadha also being awarded the John Cassevettes prize at Indie Spirit Awards, LA.
