Plot details
Agastya uses math to find his mother a partner
The newly released trailer follows Agastya (Ahuja), a 19-year-old math prodigy, who believes that any problem in life can be solved with logic and data. He embarks on "Project Mom," a mission to find the perfect partner for his single mother, Vinita (Singh). The arrival of new math professor Ira (Dhar) complicates things as they work together to create an algorithm for the ideal match.
Director's perspective
Kharkongor on unique approach to relationships
Kharkongor said in a statement, "Maa Ka Sum does not really fit into a neat box. It is not a typical relationship drama, nor is it a purely coming-of-age story." "Using mathematics in a slightly unusual manner allowed us to explore these emotions in a fresh way." Singh added, "Vinita is unlike anyone I have played before, and...I love that Vinita allows herself to be vulnerable, to rediscover love."

Ahuja on playing a son who loves his mother
Ahuja said, "What I found most endearing about Agastya is that beneath all his confidence and brilliance, he is simply a son who deeply loves his mother and wants to see her happy." "Being part of a Prime Video Original series has been an incredibly special experience, and I just hope audiences enjoy Agastya and his journey as much as I did portraying him."
