Hamisha Daryani Ahuja's Postcards on Netflix highlights the cultural similarities between India and Nigeria

- Neha Kirpal

Hamisha Daryani Ahuja’s recent Netflix series, Postcards, is a story about four Nigerians navigating love and self-discovery in India. “I was inspired to create this series because I am intrigued by human connections, human behaviour and love,” says Ahuja about the series, which has each character going through their own journey of struggle and realisation, some subtle, some overt. “We are driven by our circumstances, perspectives and upbringing. The idea of the slice-of-life drama is for the audience to see themselves in any or all of the characters and realise that sometimes life is not black or white, there can be blurred lines and a lot of grey,” she says.
