Hulu’s “Deli Boys” Premieres March 6

Check out the official trailer for Hulu’s upcoming half-hour comedy series, “Deli Boys.”

All episodes will stream exclusively on Thursday, March 6 on Hulu.

SYNOPSIS
After their deli-tycoon father suddenly dies, Raj and Mir Dar, a pair of spoiled Pakistani-American brothers, lose everything and find out that their Baba was more drug lord than corporate magnate. The freaked-out boys are ushered kicking and screaming (literally) into the underworld by their Lucky Auntie and her nemesis Ahmad Uncle. As Raj and Mir fumble from one ridiculous catastrophe to the next, every move they make is life or death. Because when your trust fund is gone, so is the luxury of screwing up.
