After the launch of Special Ops, Hotstar Specials is back with another interesting series - Aarya. It has been made in conjunction with RMF (Ram Madhvani Films) and marks the comeback of Sushmita Sen.
From the trailer, we get to know that Aarya is a story where organised crime is the daily family business and betrayal runs deep. The world of Hotstar Specials show Aarya starts with a loving wife & doting mother (Aarya), her reluctance to be involved in the illegal narcotics family business; whose life is suddenly turned upside down, her family is threatened and, in the quest to protect them she is forced to become the very person she always avoided. She realizes that to protect her family from criminals, she herself needs to become one!
Sushmita Sen makes her digital debut as the protagonist in this titular show, after staying away from the spotlight for over a decade. She looks every bit convincing in her role as Aarya. Maachis fame actor Chandrachur Singh also returns to the screen in this riveting story. The show also features an ensemble cast of talented actors Namit Das, Flora Saini, Sikandar Kher, Jayant Kripalani, Sohaila Kapoor, Sugandha Garg, Maya Sareen, Vishwajeet Pradhan and Manish Chaudhary in pivotal roles.
Aarya is an official adaptation of popular Dutch crime-drama Penoza. It is co-produced by Endemol Shine and slated to release on June 19 on Disney+ Hotstar VIP.
Talking about the show, Ram Madhvani, Director, Co-creator and Co-producer RMF (Ram Madhvani Films) said, “The world of Aarya is a complex web of emotions, twisted family bonds and betrayal at the heart of it all. It’s a bold and strong narrative that takes it beyond the spectrum of a crime-drama. Every character has a purpose in Aarya’s journey as she goes from being a homemaker to a hardened criminal. I spent many years trying to build this world brick-by-brick but I didn’t do it alone - 588 others from the cast and crew have built this show from the ground up! I am thankful to the team at Hotstar Specials who have helped us bring this vision of Aarya to life, and to the immense talents of both Sushmita Sen and Chandrachur Singh and to all our actors. It’s going to be an unpredictable but refreshing watch!”
Actor Sushmita Sen said, “Aarya represents strength, determination and above all vulnerability in a world full of crime, a world run by men. For me, personally, it is the story of family, betrayal and a mother who is willing to go to any length to protect her children. It took me a decade to find a role like this to sink into and I’m thrilled to be a part of this incredible story. I am thankful to Hotstar Specials, Ram Madhvani and his team for giving me the role of a lifetime!”
This looks like an interesting series to look forward to.
