Mrs Deshpande release time and OTT platform details
The Madhuri Dixit-starrer will be available exclusively on Jio Hotstar in full HD. Viewers can start watching the series from 12 am on December 19. The show is directed by Nagesh Kukunoor and is an official adaptation of the acclaimed French miniseries La Mante, created by Alice Chegaray-Breugnot, Nicolas Jean and Grégoire Demaison.
Along with Madhuri Dixit in the titular role, the series stars Siddharth Chandekar, Priyanshu Chatterjee and Diksha Juneja in key supporting roles.
What is Mrs Deshpande about?
Mrs Deshpande revolves around a convicted serial killer, played by Madhuri Dixit, who is serving time in prison. The police approach her for help when a copycat killer begins replicating her crimes. She agrees to assist, but only if she is allowed to work closely with her estranged son, who is a police officer.
Talking about her character, Madhuri Dixit said, “I'm excited for this one because Mrs Deshpande is a character with a lot of layers. She's like an onion and as you go from episode to episode, you're peeling off the onion... literally getting to know her and who she is. I think each character is unique and because Mrs Deshpande has her own story and her own thing so I had to delve into her life and delve into her psyche to create who she is.”
Produced by Applause Entertainment, the series promises high production values and a tight narrative. The trailer hints at a restrained, intense performance by Madhuri Dixit and a gripping cat-and-mouse chase.
