A virtual press meet was organized to announce the news of the new content on the platform. Gracing the occasion was Ajay Devgn, Shabana Azmi, Pratik Gandhi, Shefali Shah, Kirti Kulhari, and many others.

Speaking at the occasion, Ajay Devgn said “I have always wanted to challenge and re-invent myself as an actor. The series Rudra has been an amazing experience and this is something I have never done before”.

Shefali Shah will be seen in the role of a doctor in the medical series Human. “Digital platforms have opened up new doors for the creative-minded individuals. I have always selected those roles that are bold, flawed, whole, or broken. I have chosen stories that have something for me as well as for the audience. These roles leave an impact on the audience. Human is just like that. It shows the underbelly of the medical world” said the actress.
