In 2019, The Viral Fever (TVF) announced that it is going to remake Permanent Roommates in Telugu.^[13] They then announced that they are going to produce the remake along with Aha by naming the web series as CommitMental.^[14][15]

Popular YouTuber Udhbav Raghunanda and film actress Punarnavi Bhupalam^[16][17] were taken as lead actors and the series is directed by Sadineni Pavan, who previously directed Tollywood films Prema Ishq Kaadhal and Savitri.^[18]

Hemanth Kumar writing for the Firstpost rated the series 2.5/5 and wrote, "Despite moments of genuine humour in CommitMental, we never get enough reasons to feel invested in the leads' romance or their challenges." On performances, Kumar added that "Punarnavi Bhupalam does a good job in her role as Anu, who’s confused about whether she wants Phani in her life or not. And Udbhav fits the role perfectly and his non-stop chatter really gets on to your nerves, which probably was his character brief too."^[19]

Neeshita Nyayapati of The Times of India rated the series two stars out of five and wrote "CommitMental has potential to be a relatable, cute series on paper. Sadly it doesn’t rise above the banal and fails to give the viewer enough insight into Anu and Phani’s relationship to feel invested."^[20]
