I was deeply fascinated by the character- Anamika Anand played by Madhuri Dixit Nene in the thriller series Fame Game. She played the role brilliantly in her OTT debut. After that, I heard an announcement about a heart warming drama- Maja Ma, which intrigued me more. And today, the makers of the film Prime Video announced the date of release of the First Indian Amazon Original Movie Maja Ma starring the beautiful actor. It will be premiering on October 6 on the OTT platform.
Check out the announcement here:
As I saw the poster I got to know that Madhuri will be playing a complex, nuanced and fearless avatar. It is a family entertainer, set against the celebratory backdrop of a traditional festival and a quintessential, colorful Indian wedding. Warm and funny, this light-hearted yet thought-provoking drama has unexpected twists and turns.
Maja Ma boasts of an ensemble cast including Gajraj Rao, Ritwik Bhowmik, Barkha Singh, Srishti Shrivastava, Rajit Kapur, Sheeba Chaddha, Simone Singh, Malhar Thakar and Ninad Kamat.
On directing the film, Anand Tiwari says…
I truly believe that the audience today is looking for content that is fresh, varied, and modernistic in its approach, yet keeps the humble storytelling at heart. Audiences are open to new genres and new experiences and Maja Ma does all that and more. Pulling at the viewers’ heartstrings while also making them laugh at the same time this beautiful story features a highly versatile cast who breathe life into their characters flawlessly and beautifully. I am delighted to have Maja Ma premiere on Prime Video. It is truly fulfilling to witness Indian content reach worldwide audiences
The project has been produced by Leo Media Collective and Amritpal Singh Bindra. The beautiful story has been written by Sumit Batheja.
Well, I am excited to see Madhuri playing the lead again, in a never-seen-before role. Can’t wait to watch her on October 6 on Prime Video.
