Who else could fit the role of Queen of an empire other than Dimple Kapadia as Rani Ba - the name says it all. Angira Dhar as Kajal and Isha Talwar as Bijlee, Rani Ba's two daughters-in-law along with Radhika Madan as Shanta, the daughter form a strong, loyal bond as the women of the house. This gang of women runs- not the kitchen, but a narcotics empire disguised behind the innocent facade of herbal and handicrafts businesswomen. The plot intensifies as Rani Ba declares someone new as the heir to her drug kingdom, sparking rumbling, power-hungry family conflict.
This is the story of a mother who transforms from reverent to ruthless on her journey to find her daughter's killers. Sakshi Tanwar, as Sheel, turns the underworld upside down to seek justice for her daughter, Supriya- played by Wamiqa Gabbi. She hunts the truth at all and any costs, ready to kill - this form of love can only be exhibited by a mother who has lost her daughter.
