Sony LIV's new web series Maharani directed by Subhash Kapoor starring Huma Qureshi in the lead role released online on Friday, May 29.

Apart from Huma, the show also features Sohum Shah, Vineet Kumar, and Amit Sial in key roles.
A look at Maharani plot
The official synopsis of the show on Sony LIV reads, "Set in Bihar of the ’90s, this story shows how an illiterate woman handles the state as Chief Minister. Rani Bharti's life takes an interesting turn when her husband, Bhim Singh Bharati, announces her to be the next Chief Minister of Bihar. While all the party members look pretty excited to know the name of the successor, this decision by Bihar’s CM shocks everyone." As the new CM and a homemaker, the politicians expect Maharani to be a pawn in their political games but they are shocked when Rani starts standing up for herself and speaks up fiercely.
