Meet Flick TV, India's first OTT platform dedicated to micro-dramas
10 Jun 2025

Flick TV, an OTT platform dedicated to micro-dramas, has raised seed funding worth $2.3 million.

The funding round was led by Stellaris Venture Partners, in association with Gemba Capital and Titan Capital.

Founded earlier this year by Kushal Singhal and Pratik Anand, Flick TV wants to meet the rising demand for high-quality storytelling on smartphones in India.

What are micro-dramas?
Type

Micro-dramas are stories with run times under five minutes, that are meant to be viewed vertically on your phone.

Unlike long-form OTT shows, they promise a gripping narrative arc in minutes, and pack the emotional punch of a lengthy episode.

The best part? They are binge-worthy and suitable for those with short attention spans.
