Recently, she stole the show with her immaculate acting in the web show Aarya and now the actress is gearing for yet another note-worthy project.

Sushmita Sen will portray the transgender activist Gauri Sawant in her next online series Taali. Sushmita shared the first image from the show and wrote that it was an honour to convey Sawant's narrative to the big screen. Ravi Jadhav, a Marathi filmmaker, will direct the show. 

"Taali - बजाऊँगी नहीं, बजवाऊँगी ! #firstlook as #ShreegauriSawant Nothing makes me prouder & more grateful than to have the privilege of portraying this beautiful person & of bringing her story to the world!! ❤️ Here’s to life & to everyone’s right to live it with dignity!!! 🙏 I love you guys!!! #duggadugga 🤗❤️ #currentlyfilming #Taali #ShreegauriSawant #Biopic @shreegaurisawant @Viacom18 @gseamsak @kartiknishandar @arjunsbaran @ravijadhavofficial @afeefanadiadwala @kshitijpatwardhan"
