The first season will be available on Thursday, December 17.
Inspired by Jhumpa Lahiri's story story collection of the same name, the groundbreaking family drama centers on a tight-knit Indian American community navigating love, longing, loss, and belonging. Rich with nuance, emotion, and unforgettable characters, Unaccustomed Earth invites you into the culturally vibrant lives of multi-generational families in Cambridge and Boston, Massachusetts. When Parul Chaudhury (Pinto), a wife and mother who sacrificed her college first-love to honor her father's wishes, gets a life-changing cancer diagnosis, she moves her family from India back to the one place where she truly felt at home - Cambridge, MA. Determined to finally pursue the life she never got to live before it's too late, her radical choices upend the lives of everyone she loves, changing the fabric of this immigrant community forever.
In addition to Pinto, the drama stars Siddharth, Indraneil Sengupta, Parveen Kaur, Sarayu Blue, Justin Bartha, Adi Roy, Iyla Sundarsingh Mckaig, Jayant Kripalani, Ishita Bansal, Meera Simham, Ravi Kapoor, Swayam Bhatia and Palomi Ghosh.
Madhuri Shekar developed the drama. She executive produces with Lahiri, John Wells, Nisha Ganatra, Erica Saleh, Erin Jontow, Celia Costas and director Ritesh Batra. Warner Bros. Television and John Wells Productions produce.
