Habib Faisal, who presented the story of a middle-class family with his debut film 'Do Dooni Chaar', will be exploring the genre yet again for Ekta Kapoor's ALTBalaji's upcoming web-series 'HOME'.The director depicted the struggle of a common middle-class family to buy a car in the times of inflation with his debut film 'Do Dooni Chaar'. 

His upcoming series 'HOME', dwells upon the story of a family struggling to fight for their home stuck into the corrupt hands of the builders. Habib Faisal is the first director to present a story on the digital platform of a middle-class family inspired from real incidents. 

Speaking about the show, Habib said in a statement, "When I was contacted by the ALTBalaji team I was told one line of the story and that one line was enough for me to say yes.Secondly when I was told that this is to be done as web series I had my apprehensions. I myself am a fan of some very well known web series and I thought if I was to direct one, will I do a good job? But then that challenge itself was very exciting and so I dived into it. With ALTBalaji, from day one, Ekta told me that I should have the complete ownership of the show and she as ALTBalaji head has honored this from the word go till the very end. Hats off to Ekta for letting me tell this story the way I wanted to." 

Habib has written films like, 'Qaidi Band', 'Fan' and directed 'Daawat-e-Ishq', 'Ishaqzaade' and ' 'Do Dooni Chaar' among others.

‘HOME’, which stars mavens like Annu Kapoor, Supriya Pilgaonkar, Amol Parashar and Parikshit Sahani is sure to resonate with every Indian who dreams to have their own shelter. It is loosely based on the true events revolving around the story about a housing society where families lost their homes due to misconduct of the builder.

Home's trailer will be live from 16th August. The 12 episode show will be streaming on the ALTBalaji app and the website from 29th August.
