Seeing people laugh, feel, and open up to the conversations the show has sparked around parenting, adoption, and love, has meant everything to us. The fact that it’s been trending globally for two weeks since its release, and became No. 1 in India so quickly, reminds us why we tell these stories – because honest, simple emotions still connect deeply.”
