AJ Films & Entertainment has announced the anthology series Therapy Chronicles, directed and executive produced by Salman Alam Khan. Set across Los Angeles, Glendale, Pasadena, and Santa Monica, the eight-episode series centers on therapy sessions that reveal the hidden emotional lives of everyday people. The series follows characters including a South Asian immigrant confronting inherited shame, a Black therapist dealing with unresolved grief, a queer South Asian couple navigating faith and acceptance, an estranged father and daughter, an undocumented worker facing systemic fear, and a high-powered executive battling depression. Threading through these narratives is Dr. Arjun, an Indian American therapist whose own inner fractures emerge, making his journey the series' emotional core.
The series culminates in subtle intersections among characters through shared spaces and emotional parallels, emphasizing that healing involves learning to live honestly with what remains. Khan's directorial approach employs long takes, close framing, and natural performances to immerse viewers in the therapy room. He collaborates with actors through exploratory rehearsals and works closely with the cinematographer, production designer, and sound team to ensure every element serves the emotional narrative. As executive producer, Khan oversees script development, casting, and integration of multilingual elements including English, Urdu, Punjabi, and Spanish.
Produced under AJ Films & Entertainment, founded by Ajay Mohamed, the series benefits from a robust production infrastructure. Mohamed handles day-to-day operations, financial tracking, and cross-departmental coordination, bridging Khan's artistic vision with practical realities. The visual approach embraces a restrained, performance-driven aesthetic, using natural light and extended takes. Color and sound function as emotional scaffolding, with warm palettes giving way to cooler tones as deeper truths are confronted. Sound design prioritizes breathing and ambient space over heavy scoring.
Technically, the series is captured on RED Komodo and Sony FX3 systems and mastered in 4K HDR with 5.1 surround sound, suitable for YouTube viewing and potential festival presentations. The core creative team includes cinematographer Rayana Rasamee, production designer Shoaib Shawl, and editor Jackie Lang.
