Lately, there are only a handful of shows and films that make a good and worthy family watch. Yeh Hai Meri Family of Gullak being a few of them. OTT platforms often focus on catering to either the youth or the older generation, leaving a gap for content that brings families together. Where are the stories that encourage us to sit down with our loved ones and strengthen our bonds?
Disney+ Hotstar is stepping up to fill this void with its upcoming family-friendly show, Parachute. This search-and-rescue drama revolves around two children, who are deeply loved by their parents. The children fear their dad, a strict disciplinarian, who nurtures the belief that sparing the rod can spoil the children.
The trailer for the show promises an innocent tale of two children, parent-child relationships, and the challenges of parenthood.
This show might go beyond just a fun watch. It can encourage open conversations between parents and children about unforeseen events, helping them better understand and prepare for such situations.
As times change, so do the viewing habits of children. Platforms like YouTube are no longer the only place for content. There is a growing need for child-friendly shows and films that not only entertain but also spark genuine, heartfelt conversations within families. Parachute could be a step in that direction.
Stream the show on Disney+ Hotsar from November 29!
