Production

Modern Love Hyderabad was filmed between September and November 2021. Speaking to

News18: "In my story titled ‘What Clown Wrote This!’, you will see universal themes but from a distinctly Telugu lens and that's what makes it so interesting. We’ve delved deep into the psyche of the Telugu man (and woman) to understand what makes today's generation tick".[6]

Release

The series was released on Amazon Prime Video on 8 July 2022.[7]

Reception

Janani K of India Today rated the series 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "The show aims to tug at our heartstrings, but settles for more melodrama".[8] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV rated the series 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Revathy, outstanding as ever, conveys a range of emotions with mere glances and gestures. Nithya Menen is luminous".[9]
