Talking about the two new projects, Dabba Cartel chronicles the story of five housewives who run a high stakes secret cartel business. Set in the backdrop of 1960’s Mumbai, Queen Of The Hill will circle around the theme of style, ambition, love and friendship. The story will revolve around the dynamic relationship between two ambitious women that will change the city forever.

Apart from this, Excel’s projects like Mirzapur Season 3 and Jee Le Zaraa are also one of the most-anticipated projects back by Akhtar and Sidhwani. “Mirzapur Season 3… we are working on the script. We were actually supposed to start shooting this year, but now because of the lockdown and rains (the monsoons, following the lockdown, has apparently made it difficult for the third season to take off, despite the government somewhat relaxing shooting restrictions for the industry), it is happening definitely, but it’ll be happening next year.” Sidhwani earlier told an online news portal.
