Nagpur : Marathi entertainment fans in Nagpur—the vibrant Orange City—were treated to a memorable day as celebrated actors Priya Bapat and Umesh Kamat along with director Varun Narvekar visited the city to promote their upcoming Marathi ZEE5 show, Hey Kay Navin?. The real‑life couple will be seen portraying a married pair navigating life’s next big turning points, bringing an authentic emotional depth to the narrative.
Produced by Pratisaad Productions and Bahawa Entertainment, ‘Hey Kay Navin?’ follows Rama and Aditya—a modern, seemingly settled couple who have checked every box life asked of them. A warm home, steady careers, a supportive family, and a marriage built on 10 years of comfort and understanding. But as they enter a new chapter, an unexpected question begins to echo between them: What comes after “happily ever after”?
As new friendships, shifting dynamics, and the weight of everyone else’s “perfect timelines” start influencing Rama’s world, the couple finds themselves navigating choices that test their bond in ways neither anticipated. Blending humour, warmth, and sharp emotional insight, the series explores identity, evolving ambitions, partnership, and the unspoken anxieties that surface when life appears ‘complete’ from the outside.
Directed by Varun Narvekar and produced by Pratisaad Productions, the series offers a refreshing take on modern relationships—where love isn’t just about comfort but about growth and reinvention.
Sharing her experience, Priya Bapat added, “Nagpur has always been incredibly warm, and this visit felt especially meaningful. It was wonderful to speak about Rama with audiences here, and promoting the series across Maharashtra with my real-life partner while playing a reel-life couple makes this journey even more special. Rama is a character many women will instantly connect with because she stands at that familiar crossroads where ambition, identity, and responsibility intersect. Portraying her made me revisit the quiet questions we often push aside—‘What do I want next?’ and ‘Where do I fit in my own story?’ Hey Kay Navin? gives those emotions a voice. I’m grateful to ZEE5 for supporting such honest storytelling and truly excited for audiences to experience it.”
Talking about his role, Umesh Kamat said, “What drew me to Hey Kay Navin? was how realistically it captures a phase of marriage we rarely talk about. Aditya’s journey is subtle, layered, and deeply human. Marathi ZEE5 has always championed relatable, meaningful stories, and I’m glad to be part of a series that mirrors everyday relationships with such sensitivity. The energy in Nagpur was fantastic. Meeting people, hearing their views on relationships, and giving them a glimpse of the show made the visit truly memorable. It’s always special when audiences connect even before a release. I genuinely can’t wait for everyone to experience Hey Kay Navin? on Marathi ZEE5.”
Director Varun Narvekar shared, “Marathi ZEE5 has always encouraged narratives that feel honest and emotionally true, and ‘Hey Kay Navin?’ is a result of that creative freedom. We wanted to tell a story that feels close to real life, simple, sincere, and deeply human. Aditya and Rama’s journey is about rediscovering purpose and connection within marriage, and I believe Marathi ZEE5 is the perfect platform for such intimate storytelling.”
