After the ground-breaking series Delhi Crime (2019), creator Richie Mehta is now revisiting the chapter of India’s independence. His yet-untitled period drama aims to shed light on the lives of women who played pivotal roles in the Indian freedom struggle, and yet were overshadowed by prominent figures like Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Mohammad Ali Jinnah. We hear the acclaimed filmmaker has initiated discussions with Priyanka Chopra Jonas to lead the series.
