ZEE5 announces new series Mithya starring Huma Qureshi
ZEE5 started 2022 with the launch of its first series Kaun Banegi Shikharwati, which is in partnership with Applause Entertainment. The series crossed 11 million views in less than three weeks since its premiere.
Now, the two leading content companies have collaborated yet again for another series, Mithya. Directed by Rohan Sippy, Mithya, a six-part series features a compelling star cast led by Huma Qureshi and Avantika Dassani and supported by Parambrata Chatterjee, Rajit Kapur and Samir Soni in pivotal roles.
Set in Darjeeling, the series revolves around the conflicted relationship between a professor of Hindi literature Juhi, played by Huma Qureshi, and her student Rhea, played by Avantika Dassani. What sparks off as a classroom conflict, soon spirals out of control, triggering an adverse psychological combat between the two women leading to fatal consequences and shocking revelations.
Mithya, an original adaption of 2019 series Cheat, marks the debut of Avantika Dassani, who is the daughter of actress Bhagyashree and sister of actor Abhimanyu Dassani.
