Netflix has added a new family entertainer to its OTT lineup with Chumbak, a multi-generational comedy series set in a lively urban neighbourhood. The show premiered on September 10, 2026, and is currently available to stream on Netflix. The series revolves around five families living next to each other in the fictional Chumbak Colony in Mumbai. Although each family has its own home and personal problems, their lives are closely connected. As a result, even a small incident inside one household can quickly become a matter of concern for the entire neighbourhood. The central idea of Chumbak is the transformation of neighbours into an extended family. The series explores everyday relationships, celebrations, arguments, friendships and gossip while using the chaos of community living as its primary source of humour. The show has an ensemble cast led by veteran actress Neena Gupta and also features Deven Bhojani, Manasi Parekh, Sumeet Vyas, Sumeet Raghavan, Sandeepa Dhar, Arjun Bijlani, Helly Shah, Anant V. Joshi, Amyra Dastur, Delnaaz Irani and Atul Kumar. Chumbak comes from Hats Off Production, the banner associated with popular comedy shows such as Sarabhai vs Sarabhai and Khichdi. Aatish Kapadia has written and directed the series, while Jamnadas (JD) Majethia and Kapadia are associated with its production. The series was initially scheduled to premiere on August 28 but was subsequently postponed. It finally arrived on Netflix on September 10. For viewers in India, the series became available at around 12:30 PM IST as part of Netflix's global release schedule. Netflix describes the show as a feel-good sitcom built around friendship, marriage, family and neighbourhood life. The format is aimed at viewers who enjoy ensemble comedies where multiple characters and their interconnected relationships drive the story. For Telugu-speaking audiences, Chumbak is also listed among Netflix's Telugu-dubbed OTT releases. This gives the series an opportunity to reach beyond its Hindi-speaking audience. With its familiar setting, large ensemble and creators known for Indian television comedy, Chumbak is positioned as a light-hearted family watch on Netflix.
