Release

ImMature was premiered first on the Canneseries, an international series festival held at Cannes on 11 April 2018,[7] thus becoming the first ever web series from The Viral Fever to be premiered at this festival.[8][9] After several months, Sameer Saxena, the creative producer of TVF announced that the digital distribution rights of the film were sold to MX Player.[10] The trailer for the series was released on 14 February 2019.[11] MX Player released first two episodes on 18 February 2019, ahead of the scheduled date on 20 February, and the remaining episodes were released on the same date.[3] In April 2019, it was announced that the makers had renewed for a second season.[4]

Reception

Sowmya Rao of Scroll.in reviewed "Immature's strong suit is its ability to tap into the elements that make adolescence ripe for dramatisation. This it does by looking at ordinary characters and trading glamour for a glimpse of school life that is far closer to reality [...] The series nails the endless catastrophising over small setbacks and worldview that's both self-centred and self-deprecating ... [It] is like an instant noodles formula: quick, easy, enjoyable but ultimately transient."[12] Devasheesh Pandey of News18 wrote "The makers have effectively limited themselves to painting a target on frivolous boys, who eventually end up having their way. But in that there is a stark absence of a character that stands counter to the flippant story line. However, the performances of the lead actors are funny up to a point that it does not go overboard."[13]
