Shaheer Sheikh gears up for a new show

Considered to be one of the biggest stars on Indian television, actor Shaheer Sheikh will soon make his grand return to the small screen. Reportedly, the actor has signed a new show, which will be produced by well-known producer Yash Patnaik.

The actor, who was last seen in the popular TV series Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi, will play an intense lover on his next show. According to a source, the soap will be set against the backdrop of Jhansi.


“It is an intense love story, which will be about giving love another chance. Shaheer fits the part to the T. The first schedule will be shot in Jhansi, as that is where the story is set,” reveals a source.

When Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi went off-air a couple of months back, fans went crazy as they wanted Shaheer to return soon. Some reports also claimed that seeing the huge popularity of the star, makers of Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi thought to roll out the next season of the series as soon as possible. However, the latest we hear is that Shaheer’s next show will be totally different from his last outing.

Reportedly, the yet-to-be-titled show will be directed by Saket Chaudhary, who has helmed the Irrfan Khan and Saba Qamar starring successful film, Hindi Medium.

'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.
