The former Miss Universe Sushmita Sen made everyone stick to the screen with her flashing comeback in the 2020 Disney+ Hotstar web series Aarya starring her and Chandrachur Singh in lead. After two successful series, the fans are anxiously waiting for the third season.
However, recent reports on the Aarya S3 project dropping made its fans very much disheartened. It was said that the decision of dropping the third season of Aarya came after the poor response to the second season.
A source close to Disney+ Hotstar rubbished the rumor and confirmed the shooting of Aarya 3. Earlier this year even the captain of the ship Ram Madhvani announced that the third season of the web series is now in development.
Sushmita Sen plays the role of Aarya Sareen, a loving wife and a doting mother to three children. However, after her husband Tej Sareen( Chandrachur Singh) is murdered she gets to know about his illegal business. Then starts Aarya’s struggle to cope with the whole situation.
The Web show was wholeheartedly accepted by the audience and the film critics. Sushmita Sen won the Filmfare OTT Award for the best actor and in 2021, the thriller drama was nominated in the
International Emmy Awards for best drama series.
Meanwhile, Miss Sen took to her Instagram account to share the first poster of her upcoming Marathi project “Taali” where she will portray a transgender role modeled after transgender activist Gauri Sawant in the next Marathi film by Ravi Jadhav. Before this, Jadhav directed the highly provocative Marathi film Nude on Nude Art, which caused much controversy due to its blatant imagery.
We’ll have to wait and see if Jadhav’s newest endeavor, a web series about Gauri Sawant, will have the same bite as Nude. Sushmita Sen’s casting, however, does present some artistic challenges. Could she do justice to the activist’s Marathi dialect and attitude?
