Streamer Disney+ Hotstar yesterday announced its upcoming series ‘Reeta Sanyal’ with actor Adah Sharma in the lead.

Directed by Abhirup Ghosh, the show is based on the character created by acclaimed writer Amit Khan. It will start streaming on the platform from October 14, a PTI report from New Delhi stated yesterday.

The show is produced by Rajeshwar Nair and Krishnan Iyer under Keylight Productions.

Sharma, who plays Reeta Sanyal, said, “I’ve always wanted to play a character like Reeta Sanyal. I’ve been fortunate to not be typecast and got to play characters – some admirable, some scary, some sweet and many unlike me but the minute I read the script for ‘Reeta Sanyal’, I knew this was the show for me. As actors we have to do different projects to play different characters .

“Here I got to play 10 people in one show! There’s action, comedy, drama, thrill, crime, all of it. This series captures the essence of the challenges faced by a girl who is trying to make it big as a lawyer and detective.”

Nair, producer and co-founder of Keylight Productions added that the show ‘Reeta Sanyal’ was a series that’s filled with intrigue, emotion and thrilling moments.
