Speaking about the project, Madhuri had earlier told new agency IANS, "It is a story of every household yet it has a silver lining. It not only gives you hope and inspiration but also encourages you to live life in the true sense. The most fascinating factor for me to choose it is that it is going to carve a niche in everyone's heart."

Madhuri Dixit started her career in Bollywood with 1984 film Abodh; she was just 16 at that time. In a career spanning over 34 years, Madhuri featured in over 75 films and went onto become one of the leading actresses of 90s. She even gave some memorable hits such as Saajan, Khalnayak, Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! and Dil To Pagal Hai among others.

On October 17, 1999, Madhuri married a California-based surgeon Dr. Shriram Madhav Nene, in a private ceremony. Soon after the wedding, she relocated to Denver with her husband. The couple is parents to two sons - Arin and Rayaan. In 2011, she permanently moved back to Mumbai with her family.

Madhuri was last seen in 2014 film Gulaab Gang. Her maiden production would also mark her debut as an actress in Marathi film industry.
