There is something about Permanent Roommates’ lead couple Mikesh and Tanya that makes you root for them. Actor Sumeet Vyas, who leads the slice-of-life series, attributes it to the fact that they have kept the show simple and relatable. Over its past two seasons, the Amazon Prime Video offering has traced the ups and downs in the lives of Vyas’s Mikesh and Nidhi Singh’s Tanya, thus showcasing modern-day relationships. Asked how he makes his character relatable when the world around is fast changing, Vyas says, “We have to do right by the characters. I still remember what it felt like doing the first two seasons. It’s all in my emotional memory, and I went back to it. A lot of this show revolves around simple conversations. They have to be done in that moment, without any baggage.”
