Talking about Hutatma, the originals produced by Zee5 is based on the book written by Meena Deshpande. The first season of the original revolved around the young character Vidyut who wants to avenge her father's untimely demise.
The period drama will progress onto a much intense plot as the Samyukta Maharashtra Movement intensifies and it would be really interesting how the story takes its course of turn and how Vidyut will plot her revenge.

Hutatma is the second Marathi show after the critically acclaimed series Sex, Drugs & Theater.
Talking about her character in the season, actor Anjali Patil who is playing Vidyut in the series said, "Vidyut in this season is a transition of a very vulnerable girl into an extremely powerful and manipulative force which is focused on the justice. Her mission to seek justice becomes the primary focus of her existence leaving no space for any other personal emotions. This was stepping into a territory which as an actor I have never experienced. The entire experience of Hutatma was enriching and empowering for me as a woman. And now when I see Vidyut from outside, I'm extremely terrified of her and the force she carries within herself!”.
It would be very interesting to see how the show is received by the audience as web series and digital content is marking a new surge of interest especially in the Indian market. Players like Netflix and Amazon Prime has announced their arrival with the hit shows like Sacred Games and Mirzapur.
