Mumbai: Veteran actor Mohan Agashe, who is known for playing the Defence Minister in ‘Rang De Basanti’, is set to be seen in the upcoming streaming series ‘Do Gubbare’. The actor shared that the series celebrates connections that happen unexpectedly.

The series marks the Hindi debut of director Varun Narvekar, who is known for the Marathi film ‘Muramba’, and follows the story of Rohit, a young man who relocates from Indore to Pune and becomes a paying guest at Ajoba’s (Mohan Agashe) house.

Ajoba, who grapples with loneliness after his wife’s demise, finds solace and companionship in Rohit’s presence.
