4th October, 2024, Mumbai: From serving looks to serving justice, Reeta Sanyal is here to make you gasp, wonder and laugh - all at once! Disney+ Hotstar just dropped the trailer of the thrilling drama series, Reeta Sanyal, starring the fabulous Adah Sharma along with the talented ensemble cast including Ankur Rathee, Rahul Dev and Manik Papneja. Lawyer by profession, detective by heart, Reeta Sanyal brings a fresh, quirky twist with a breath of fresh air. Produced by Rajeshwar Nair and Krishnan Iyer under the banner of Keylight Productions and directed by Abhirup Ghosh, Disney+ Hotstar’s Reeta Sanyal is based on the character created by the acclaimed writer Amit Khan. It’ll be available to watch for free on the Disney+ Hotstar mobile app with new episodes releasing Monday to Friday!
“As the director of Reeta Sanyal, I'm thrilled to bring this intricate blend of courtroom drama, pulp fiction and detective work to life. Reeta Sanyal is a true blue masala show that has everything that us Indian audiences like to watch, ranging from comedy to revenge; from action to thrills; from romance to bromance. Our talented ensemble cast, led by Adah Sharma, has poured their hearts into these characters. With Reeta, we wanted to present an edgy character with a quirky flair and intelligence resembling Adah in reality. Reeta navigates moral complexities and complicated mysteries in a way that’s both entertaining and thought-provoking. Adah poured her infectious energy into Reeta and steered the narrative in an exciting direction. I can't wait for everyone to experience the dynamic storytelling and emotional depth we’ve crafted together, premiering October 14 exclusively on Disney+ Hotstar.”
- Abhirup Ghosh, Director
“Playing Reeta Sanyal was a crazy experience for me. She’s sharp, fearless, and always one step ahead. Reeta’s sense of humour even in serious situations is something I resonated with the most. As an actor I'm trying to play characters I haven't played before and in Reeta Sanyal I got to be so many people. Legally ! Reeta is a master of disguises and I can't wait for the audience to watch her in different get ups speaking in different accents. I've used some voices inspired by some famous people too so I think the audience is in for a laugh riot. The unique thing about this show is that there isn't any movie or show I can draw comparisons to.”
- Adah Sharma, Actress
“Playing Thakral has been a rewarding experience. A devil’s advocate carrying a big reputation, he's feared & respected by most in the legal circles. He operates in the gray areas of legality and blurs the lines between legal and illegal. He is the bane of Reeta’s life. While essaying Thakral's part, I was able to explore spoken word(dialogues) which went beyond the scope of real life. I am thankful to Abhirup, our director, whose inputs constantly manoeuvred the course of the character.”
- Rahul Dev, Actor
“Disney+ Hotstar’s Reeta Sanyal is made up of unconventional characters in a fantastical world. My character, Jai, is a quirky yet charming police inspector. He aids Reeta’s investigation and their flirtatious dynamic leaves us constantly wondering “will they won’t they?” It only adds to the layers of tension, suspense, and theatrics that drive the story forward. I’m thrilled to bring this character to life and I can’t wait for the audience to experience the unfolding drama alongside him.”
- Ankur Rathee, Actor
“Disney+ Hotstar’s Reeta Sanyal is a hatke show, and playing a character at the center of this strategic chaos was thrilling. My character supports and balances Reeta’s quirky unpredictability, which really shines on screen. Working with Adah was a blast—her energy is impeccable, and our off-screen rapport made it easy to build natural chemistry on set. We shared plenty of laughs, which helped create the strong bond our characters have.”
- Manik Papneja, Actor

Big FM and Star Plus present 4th edition of Big Star Entertainment Awards
Gaurav Banerjee, General Manager, Star Plus, said, “New Year’s Eve on Star Plus has always been the one-stop destination to celebrate the grandeur and excellence of cinema. Viewers have enjoyed bringing in the New Year in the company of the biggest stars of Bollywood and this year we believe that Big Star Entertainment Awards will again be a night to remember.”
Points of View: Is audience voting essential for reality shows?
Ashish Golwalkar, Head non-fiction programming, Star Plus said, "Television is all about popularity and the audiences are the critics. We believe that public voting is very essential but the show should not completely depend on it."
Entertainment battle moves to the web
Sanjay Gupta, chief operating officer, Star India, reckons that the biggest issue around the growth of online video is the lack of a destination other than YouTube. Given the extreme fragmentation and mind-boggling choices that rule the world of online video, a destination brand, such as Hulu or Netflix, is critical, thinks Gupta.
