Pooja Bhatt shatters patriarchy in the upcoming Netflix series

Alankrita Shrivastava directed Netflix series 'Bombay Begums' explores the dreams and desires of five women from different strata of society as they fight for survival in the Maximum City. The makers on Monday dropped its trailer, which is intriguing and exciting. Starring Pooja Bhatt, Shahana Goswami, Amruta Subhash, Plabita Borthakur and Aadhya Anand, Bombay Begums premieres on Netflix on March 8.

The series revolves centrally around Pooja Bhatt's character Rani, and how her life gets intertwined with the other four women.

While Rani and Shai are trying to crack the step-mom-daughter relationship, Lily comes in the way after Rani hits her son in a road accident. Lily, a bar dancer, now asks Rani not just for money but also respect in society. In the midst of all this, Rani's colleague, Fatima is struggling to find a balance between her work and career, while her husband (played by Vivek Gomber) dreams of having a child. Ayesha, who works at Rani's office, is also trying to make her way through the professional ladder, even if it means compromising with her beliefs.

The trailer of Bombay Begums depicts how the five women shatter societal norms and patriarchy, as they set out to win in their careers, love life and relationships.
