Sajid Ali’s Laila Majnu, with impressive performances by leads Avinash Tiwary and Tripti Dimri, was one of the underrated films of 2018. Three years on, the director is set to take the plunge in digital entertainment with a comedy series. The makers are tight-lipped about the project that sees Sajid reunite with his filmmaker-brother Imtiaz Ali. It is heard that Imtiaz serves as the writer and creative producer on the show, which has been co-directed by Archit.

mid-day has learnt that Sandeepa Dhar will be leading the laugh riot. This comes as another plum project for the actor who bagged Mai, Anushka Sharma’s gritty web series for Netflix, earlier this year. Dhar, seen in MumBhai last year, says the chance to bring to life one of Imtiaz’s stories was enough reason for her to say yes to the OTT offering. “For every actor, it is a great opportunity to work with a marvellous storyteller like Imtiaz Ali, who is known to bring out the best in his actors. The characters from his stories come alive so beautifully on screen and remain etched in our minds.” The actor adds that the series has been shot in Bhopal.
