Stronger. Wiser. Unapologetically themselves,” the makers tease, as per a press release. Returning to their fan-favourite characters are Sayani Gupta, Kirti Kulhari, Bani J, and Maanvi Gagroo, along- side Prateik Smita Patil, Lisa Ray, Rajeev Siddhartha, Ankur Rathee and Milind Soman.

The trailer gives a glimpse into the end of an era – and what an era it’s been. It’s a vibrant, emotional, and glori- ously messy peek into the final chapter of the quartet’s journeys, loaded with the comedy that made millions fall in love with this franchise in the first place. “The laughter that dissolves into tears. The fights that eventually heal. The mistakes that shaped them. The victories that mattered. And the unshakeable sister- hood that brought audiences back season after season. As Damini, Umang, Anjana, and Siddhi step into new phases of their lives, this season promises bold choices, long-overdue conversations, rekindled sparks, heart- break, reinvention, and the signature chaos that made the show a cultural phenomenon. It’s all here – only bigger, funnier, and more spirited than before. It’s a finale built on vulnerability, growth, and the kind of friendship that stays loud, flawed, honest, and fiercely loyal,” the logline read. Speaking on the same, lead actor Sayani Gupta opened up about her journey as the fun-loving Damini. “Damini has been a fun, liberating character to play for the last 8 years, and I have literally grown up with her. As we close this chapter, I feel immense gratitude to the fans that stood by us, season after season, with unbound love, affection and loyalty,” she said, as per the press release. “Being a part of Four More Shots Please! has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my career. Anjana’s journey – her strength, her flaws, her evolution – resonated with so many women across the world, and that love has carried us through four beautiful seasons,” Kirti Kulhari shared. “Four More Shots Please! Didn’t just give me a char- acter. It gave me a tribe,” said Maanvi Gagroo, further calling the final season a celebration of the fans. Bani J also shared her thoughts, explaining that the girl gang plans to offer a heartfelt farewell to their sup- porters. Directed by Arunima Sharma and Neha Parti Matiyani, the series will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in India and more than 240 countries and territories world- wide on December 19, 2025. -ANI PHOTO:ANI T he fans gathered outside Rajinikanth’s residence to celebrate the superstar’s 75th birthday in Chennai on Friday.
