The actress plays the role of journalist-turned-producer Mahika Nandy in the show. She told that it is a difficult task for a woman producer to make her place in the male-dominated film industry. There are always new challenges for women makers in an industry that is so dynamic.
Mahima said: “It is not easy to survive, let alone become a leading producer, in the male-dominated business of entertainment. Mahika was an outsider covering the twisted games of the industry as a journalist, but circumstances made her an insider playing the game. “This change came with a lot of vulnerability and introspection.”
She further added, “When I was reflecting on Mahika's journey and how she has stood her ground as a female producer, I couldn't help but look towards female producers like Gauri Khan and Guneet Monga, Who have established themselves in this industry. I was inspired and knew how Mahika would come out of the ongoing producer war.”
The show also stars Emraan Hashmi, Mouni Roy, Rajeev Khandelwal, Shriya Saran, Vishal Vashishtha, Neeraj Madhav and Vijay Raaz in lead roles.
'Showtime' is set to stream on Disney+Hotstar on July 12.
