Sarita Choudhury to front the cast of HBO Max's The Colony

Actor Sarita Choudhury has signed on to star in an upcoming series from the streamer HBO Max, titled The Colony.

The drama, which comes from writers and executive producers Sonejuhi Sinha and Charlotte Rabate, is based on their 2018 feature film Stray Dolls, reported Deadline.

The half-British, half-Indian actor is best known for starring in movies such as Mississippi Masala, Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love, Lady in the Water, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2, The Green Knight, and After Yang.
