Aging parents, a job that terrifies him, an old love and a gang that hasn't forgotten him. Two cultures pulling Suki apart. Sanjeev Kohli plays every character in this comedy drama about being too Indian for Scotland and too Scottish for India

When Sukhjinder "Suki" Panesar  returns to Glasgow after thirty years he’s ambushed into taking a "temporary, honest" job at his father's old school. But controlling, never mind inspiring, a generation raised on TikTok trauma-dumps and performative outrage is more than he bargained for.

Or is Suki just another coconut—brown on the outside, white on the inside—who could never live up to his father's towering legacy?

Caught between two worlds, two identities and two versions of himself, Suki navigates a new breed of troubled kids while reconnecting with his father's former students... and his own first love. 

But his return hasn't gone unnoticed. The Dhookers are still around. And now they know he's back.

Created by and starring Sanjeev Kohli, Coconut is a comedy-drama that blends absurdist heart with razor-sharp social commentary. Think Derry Girls of Glasgow meets The Wonder Years via TikTok. Suki narrates directly to camera in a vlog-style "storytime" format, with Kohli playing all characters in a tour-de-force performance.

Coconut is warm, funny and bittersweet, exploring belonging, loyalty, family, friendship, community. Everything we know to be the answer to the question: “What does it mean to be Scottish?”
