The Roommate Contract - Season 1 (2026)

Two strangers, broke and desperate, accidentally land the same “couples-only” apartment. Aryan, a struggling freelance designer, and Rhea, fed up with her chaotic home life, fake a relationship to survive Mumbai’s brutal rental scene. What starts as a harmless lie turns into a legally signed Roommate Contract—with rules, boundaries, and zero romance allowed. Or so they think.

Living together turns chaotic as Aryan and Rhea clash over space, habits, and basic human decency. From midnight noise wars to bathroom battles and ego-fueled standoffs, their “roommate contract” is tested hard. But amid the chaos, awkward silences, accidental tenderness, and unexpected concern hint that this war of egos might just be the beginning of something deeper.

Jealousy enters the apartment as unexpected guests, awkward dates, and crossed signals turn Aryan and Rhea’s fragile truce into an emotional minefield. With egos bruised, drinks flowing, and boundaries blurring, both begin to realize that pretending not to care might be harder than actually caring. Between laughter, chaos, and late-night honesty, something dangerously real starts to bloom.

Morning chaos turns into emotional confusion as boundaries blur and unspoken feelings surface. Between awkward breakfasts, misunderstood intentions, and a growing emotional dependency, Aryan and Rhea begin to realize that their “temporary arrangement” is starting to feel dangerously permanent — even as outside relationships complicate things further.

A surprise visit from Aryan’s mother explodes into chaos, misunderstandings, and heartbreak. What starts as comic panic quickly spirals into emotional damage when Rhea is forced to leave the house she thought was safe. Trust cracks, truths remain unsaid, and both are left questioning where they stand — and whether this arrangement was ever just a contract.

With emotions at their breaking point, Aryan and Rhea are forced to confront everything they’ve been avoiding. Confessions surface, egos clash, and love finally speaks out loud — just as life threatens to pull them in different directions. Choices must be made, and not all answers come without loss.
