As life catches pace and time passes by in a jiffy, a good break is all that we need. In the modern world, most of us suffice with a drink and dine with friends, a solo drive, or a shopping spree that would later mess up our credit scores. Yet the most convenient of all, a new pop culture that’s emerged over the recent years, popularly known as ‘Netflix and chill’ has garnered momentum amongst the youth. Spending hours and hours, sometimes sleepless, binge-watching our favourite OTT series is the new norm, and we’re digging it. Web series have been on the roll and have made their way to ruling all trends, from fashion to comedy to popular slangs, allowing the target audience to intake various details from the settings, the character and lifestyles, which would otherwise be missed in a movie. But what if you don’t have the time to hop on the wave, and still want to be updated on what’s happening? Hipi’s got you covered.
