Kajol said she is excited about her web series debut with a show that allowed her to experiment and reinvent herself as an actress.

“I have been playing multiple characters throughout my acting journey, but the firsts are always special. The beauty of OTT platforms is that they give creators and actors an opportunity to reinvent and experiment with different formats, and with Disney+ Hotstar’s ‘The Good Wife’, that’s exactly what I got!” Kajol said, according to PTI.
