author Sagarika Ghoses book "Indira: Indias
Most Powerful Prime Minister.
"I am happy to have acquired the rights to
Sagarika Ghose's Indira...', because I have
always wanted to play Indira Gandhi. I
haven't decided yet whether it should be a
film or a web series, but that will take a
while anyway, Vidya, a National Award
winner, said in a statement on Tuesday.
Ghose, elated about signing the contract,
wrote: "Most excited to see Indira' on-
