"It's a web series for OTT platform and it will have multiple seasons. The hard-hitting series will address all the wrong doings and scams in the medical world. And it's a real joy to have two very talented actresses, Shabana ji onboard along with Shefali Shah," Vipul Shah said in a statement to news agency PTI.
