What's more, Priyanka Chopra, who headlined ABC's Quantico is also on board as an executive Producer. The series is scripted by Sri Rao, and executive produced by Mark Gordon productions and ABC.
`I was pleasantly surprised in the summer of 2016 when Sri (Rao) said he wanted to do a series inspired by my life in America. As Ram and I chatted with Sri, the story evolved and Mark Gordon Productions came on board, wanting to produce it. Bringing on Priyanka was perfect in that she had experience with the landscape.` says Madhuri.
The show was subsequently pitched and picked up by the ABC network and is being developed for the US and international markets.
