Amazon’s free streaming service, Amazon MX Player, is buzzing with praise for its refreshing new coming-of-age series, Gamerlog, a heartfelt story set against the energetic backdrop of India’s booming esports scene. With its youthful lens and sharp humour, the series captures the trials and triumphs of a ragtag team of gamers chasing glory, identity, and connection—all while surviving life inside a chaotic gaming bootcamp in Mumbai. At the heart of the story is 17-year-old Raghu, a runaway from Surat, trying to carve his place in the world of competitive gaming. With one mission—to take down reigning champions Wolfclan, Raghu joins a team of misfits and discovers that friendship, failure, and firepower go hand-in-hand. Directed by Arya Deo and produced by Abhinay Deo, Gamerlog boasts a powerhouse cast featuring Darsheel Safary, Anjali Sivaraman, Chinmay Chandraunshuh, Kunal Bhan, Chetan Dhawan, Shubroy Chowdhury, and Akash Menon in pivotal roles.

Reflecting on the series and his character Raghu, Darsheel Safary shared, “Passion has always been my compass. Whenever I’ve felt lost or overwhelmed, it’s that hunger to grow that’s guided me. Raghu’s journey in Gamerlog, his impulsive choices, and his hunger to prove himself instantly took me right back to the time I chose to step away from acting after school. I told everyone I wanted to live my college life, but deep down, I knew I wanted to hone my craft and grow as an actor.”

Opening up about his transformative years, he added, “Theatre changed everything for me, doing plays, improvising, feeling emotions in real time in front of live audiences. I worked with groups like NCPA and Out of the Box, performing across India, living those emotions on stage—it redefined storytelling for me. By the time I returned to the screen post-pandemic, I wasn’t the same person anymore. It’s easy to lose your footing when you grow up in the spotlight. But stories like Raghu’s remind me of why I started, and why I still love doing this. Gamerlog is truly a passion project made with love and honesty, and I hope it resonates with both gamers and anyone chasing something bigger than themselves.”

Gamerlog is now available for free exclusively on Amazon MX Player, available through its apps on mobile, Amazon’s shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, and Connected TVs.
