Confirmed! Kajol all set to work with Pradeep Sarkar!

Whether she does a film or not, Kajol always remains in the limelight for one reason or the other. However, her diehard fans are just waiting to see their favourite actress in a Hindi film as soon as possible.

Kajol was last seen in the Rohit Shetty directorial Dilwale opposite Shah Rukh Khan. However, the film did not match up to audiences' expectations. After Dilwale, Kajol did a negative role in the Tamil comedy-drama VIP 2 which starred Dhanush as the leading man.


Reports about her joining hands with acclaimed filmmaker Pradeep Sarkar have been doing the rounds for months now. Now, Kajol has herself confirmed the news that her next Hindi venture will be helmed by Pradeep Sarkar.

According to reports, the untitled film will be based on Anand Gandhi’s Gujarati play ‘Beta Kaagdo’. Talking about the movie, Kajol recently revealed to a leading Indian daily, “Pradeep Sarkar will be directing the film, and it will be a home production. I cannot divulge any more details.”

Earlier, husband Ajay Devgn was also rumoured to play an important role in the film, but fresh reports claim that he is not part of the project in an actor's capacity.

The film will be bankrolled by Ajay Devgn’s production banner. The shooting is expected to begin in a couple of months.

'Akka' review: Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte’s battle exposes an uncomfortable truth about power

Highlights

  • Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte lead Netflix's five-episode crime drama set in a fictional south Indian region ruled by an 800-year-old sisterhood.
  • The series explores whether women in positions of absolute power can avoid reproducing the oppressive systems traditionally associated with patriarchy.
  • Strong performances, sharp dialogue and stylised storytelling make Akka engaging, although its political ideas are not always fully explored.

What happens when women take control of a world traditionally dominated by men? Does changing the gender of those in power automatically create a fairer society? Netflix's Akka, led by Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte, explores these uncomfortable questions through a violent crime saga built around an 800-year-old sisterhood.

Set in the fictional south Indian region of Perunuru, the five-episode series follows a powerful matriarchal community that controls the criminal underworld and the lucrative gold and illicit liquor trades. While its premise offers an interesting reversal of conventional crime dramas, the story gradually reveals that replacing male rulers with women does not necessarily dismantle the systems of oppression they inherit.
