Directed by Ram Madhvani, Sandeep Modi, and Vinod Rawat, ‘Aarya’ is an official remake of the popular Dutch crime-drama ‘Penoza’. 

The series marked return of Sushmita to acting after several years. She plays the role of Sareen (Sushmita) who is a caring mother and a loving wife. She is quite simplistic in her approach and is unaware of the illegal business her husband is a part of. However, things go bad for their family after Aarya’s husband Tej Sareen (Chandrachur Singh), a pharma baron, is mysteriously killed.

The whole drug operation and illegal syndicate seek the death of his entire family. Seeing this, Aarya joins the gangs and becomes the Mafia queen and seeks revenge from those who killed her husband. In this process, she also takes care of her three kids. Apart from Sushmita, the series also featured Sikandar Kher, Manish Chaudhari, Namit Das, veteran actor Chandrachur Singh and Vinod Rawat in the first season.

The post-production on the show’s second season is underway. Winners for the 2021 International Emmy Awards will be announced by the International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences on November 22 in New York.
