By Murtuza Iqbal

Huma Qureshi has some interesting projects lined up and one of them is Maharani, a series that will stream on Sony Liv. A few days ago, the makers had unveiled the teaser of the series, and today, the trailer has been released.


Huma took to Twitter to share the trailer with everyone. She tweeted, “A political drama set in the 90’s where among the traditional satraps there was an emerging voice.. how will an illiterate woman survive this? @subkapoor @s0humshah @amit_sial @onlysushilji @karan_rebel #PramodPathak @KaniKusruti #InaamUlHaq @jollynarenkumar @dkh9.”

Huma plays the role of a woman who becomes the Chief Minister of Bihar after her husband is shot and gets bedridden. Well, the trailer is quite good and it looks like the series will showcase that how an illiterate woman tries to make a mark in politics. The actress is amazing in the trailer and we surely have high expectations from her performance.

Created by Subhash Kapoor and directed by Karan Sharma, Maharani will start streaming on Sony Liv on 28th May 2021. It also stars Sohum Shah in a pivotal role.

Talking about other projects of Huma, the actress will be seen in films like Army of the Dead, Valimai, and BellBottom. Army of Dead is slated to release on 21st May 2021. It will release in a few theatres in the United States and digitally on Netflix.

Yash says ‘men and women see life differently’ as 'Toxic' brings a new perspective to storytelling

Highlights

  • Yash says Geethu Mohandas brought a layered and different perspective to Toxic
  • The actor resisted repeating the formula behind K.G.F: Chapter 2
  • Toxic is being developed with a global outlook while remaining rooted in Indian storytelling

Four years after the success of K.G.F: Chapter 2, Yash is returning with Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups, but not in the way many expected. Instead of following a familiar path after one of India’s biggest box-office hits, the actor says he deliberately moved away from projects that felt designed to recreate past success. For Yash, Toxic became an opportunity to explore new ideas, challenge himself creatively and think about Indian cinema on a wider stage.

Moving away from formula and playing safe

Yash revealed that after K.G.F: Chapter 2, several ideas came his way that appeared to follow an expected pattern. Rather than capitalising on what had already worked, he was drawn to stories that demanded more thought and experimentation. That eventually led him to Geethu Mohandas and Toxic. While the film carries the visual language of a gangster drama, Yash explained that it also explores emotional complexity, moral ambiguity and darker aspects of human behaviour.
