Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar is all set to produce his first television show, Jamai Raja.
Kumar has teamed up with Ashwini Yardi to produce this daily soap under the banner of Grazing Goats, co-owned by Kumar and Yardi.
The 46-year-old actor has donned several hats from being an actor, film producer to hosting culinary and action reality shows on television.
“Viewers are used to seeing a daughter-in-law playing the ‘fixer’ as she is expected to adjust to new surroundings after marriage. Our new show Jamai Raja breaks this stereotype where the husband attempts to repair the estranged relationship between his newly married wife and his mother-in-law,” Namit Sharma, programming head — Zee TV said in a statement.
The show stars popular actors such as Ravi Dubey, Nia Sharma, Achint Kaur, Apara Mehta, Delnaz Paul and Shruti Ulfat among others.
The story captures how Dubey’s character Siddharth takes it upon himself to repair the estranged relationship between his wife and mother-in law.
The show is likely to go on air from next month on Zee TV.
