Chai Shots

Chai Shots is a Hyderabad-based microdrama OTT streaming platform for vertical, short-form fiction where every episode runs under two minutes. Built by the Chai Bisket team (co-founders Sharath Chandra and Anurag Reddy), it is positioned as India's first regional short-series OTT, launching in Telugu and other regional Indian languages for Gen Z and tier II/III audiences. The platform offers pay-per-episode and unlimited subscription access, a creator-first "Clap" tipping feature, and an AI-native production workflow. It raised a $5M seed round co-led by InfoEdge Ventures and General Catalyst. Chai Shots is a consumer content app with no public developer/API surface at this time; this profile carries the company's identity and published web properties.
