Disney+ Hotstar has recently announced some major Indian projects at the ongoing D23 Expo in the US on Friday.
The projects include a new adaptation of the epic Mahabharata, reports The Hindustan Times.
The others were Koffee with Karan season 8 and a new series, titled Showtime.
Mahabharata will be produced by Madhu Mantena, Mythoverse Studios and Allu Entertainment.
The Indian mythology epic Maharabharat talks about the conflict between right and wrong as the Kauravas and the Paṇḍavas fought a war in Kurukshetra in ancient India.
Gaurav Banerjee, head of Content, Disney+ Hotstar and HSM Entertainment Network.
He said at the International Content and Operations session, "There are over a billion people who know the story in some form, or the other. Most of them in my country have heard them as children from their grandparents, there are billions more who remain unaware of what they have been missing. It would indeed be a privilege to be able to bring this incredible story to a wider global audience next year."
