Adah Sharma plays a lawyer in upcoming series Reeta Sanyal, first look out

The first look from Adah Sharma's upcoming series Reeta Sanyal was unveiled by the makers on Wednesday. She will be essaying the role of a lawyer in it. Directed by Abhirup Ghosh, the series is based on the character created by novelist Amit Khan. It also stars Rahul Dev, Ankur Rathee, and Manik Papneja in pivotal roles.

Speaking about it, Adah said, “I have always wanted to play a character like Reeta Sanyal. I have been fortunate to not be typecast and got to play characters – some admirable, some scary, some sweet and many unlike me but the minute I read the script for Reeta Sanyal, I knew this was the show for me. As actors we have to do different projects to play different characters. Here I got to play 10 people in one show.”

She added, “This series captures the essence of the challenges faced by a girl who is trying to make it big as a lawyer and detective. What makes it stand apart from something that you have seen before is, Reeta Sanyal is like reading a comic book. It's fun, exciting, thrilling and larger than life.”

It is produced by Rajeshwar Nair and Krishnan Iyer under the banner of Keylight Productions and will be released on Disney+ Hotstar on October 14.
