Supporting Role. South Asian. Kumar is the uncle everyone has at family gatherings who never stops cracking jokes. Youthful at heart, he has a way of making any room feel lighter, even if his humor doesn't always land. Beneath his playful personality, his outdated views and occasional ignorance often blur the line between harmless fun and poor judgment.
Supporting Role. Male Presenting. Jason is ambitious, magnetic, and unapologetically confident. Having built a life of wealth and success at a young age, he enjoys the lifestyle many dream of, but beneath that is someone craving a real human connection.
Supporting Role. Female Presenting. Aliyah is warm, intelligent, and effortlessly charismatic, with a grounded confidence that naturally draws people in. She believes nothing in life is certain, choosing to embrace the present rather than become attached to things she cannot control, while always valuing honesty and authenticity above all else.
