Twinkle Khanna reviews Huma Qureshi’s Maharani, says 'Totally worth the binge'

Huma Quereshi's latest web show, Maharani has got actor-author Twinkle Khanna hooked. She has been binge-watching the web series and thoroughly loving it. She shared the same with a video on Instagram. Twinkle called Maharani 'engaging' adding that Huma's performance in the web show was 'great'.

“I have been watching a show called Maharani on SonyLIV and it has me gripped. Huma Qureshi plays this illiterate housewife who then goes on to become the CM. And I thought it was interesting to see a woman not only hold her ground but who was able to dominate the social and political arena,” Twinkle is heard saying in the video.

Continuing further, she added: “The way that they have used little details, I kept noticing how in the beginning, even her ghoonghat completely covers her and as the show progresses, it keeps slipping a little behind until it is just about covering her bun. To me, these little touches add a sort of realism as well as they show me a journey. It is an engaging story and Huma is just fabulous as the Maharani. For me, this was completely a must-watch!”

Twinkle also appreciated the show in the caption of the video. She wrote, "Totally worth the binge! An engaging story about ambition and power with great performances especially by @iamhumaq You go girl!"
