According a media statement, the upcoming show will be ‘extremely unpredictable’. Sayani Gupta said, “Buri Nazar is an extremely unpredictable, exciting story that I know will have our listeners at the edge of their seats.” The audio show will revolve around Supriya Pathak’s character, Usha, who believes that her daughter, Pallavi, played by Sayani Gupta was cursed when she was in her womb. This belief stems from the fact that Pallavi is a career-oriented woman nearing her 30s without a prospective husband in sight.

Plot of Buri Nazar:

Usha arranges multiple dates for her daughter, but to no avail. Soon, Pallavi falls for Sandeep, an Indian-American entrepreneur, whose character is played by Rithwik Dhanjani. However, Usha does not approve of her daughter’s choice and grows suspicious of Sandeep’s hidden motives and real identity. Dhanjani refers to Sandeep as a ‘mysterious character’.

Actors talk about their experience, the characters in the show:

Buri Nazar is written by Madhuri Shekar, and it’s Hindi adaptation has been penned by Noopur Sinha. Supriya Pathak spoke about her experience of being part of an audio show for the first time. She said, “Playing the role of Usha and emoting the complex feelings of a loving but worried mother who just wants to protect her child using only my voice was an exciting challenge that I have thoroughly enjoyed.  Audiobooks and shows have the ability to tell a story in a new, exciting and uniquely interactive manner, and I am excited to explore this medium further”

Sayani Gupta talked about the potential of audio shows. She said, “It’s unbelievable how much potential audio shows/ plays have.

I enjoy doing it tremendously." She also delved deeper into the power of audio storytelling and her relationship with Usha, her mother on the show.
