Madhuri Dixit's 'The Fame Game' to premiere on February 25
Bollywood's dancing queen Madhuri Dixit is set to make her digital debut with a Netflix series. Titled The Fame Game, it is set against the backdrop of glitz, glamor, and fame. Backed by Karan Johar's Dharmatic Entertainment, the show will premiere on the streaming platform on February 25. Dixit plays Bollywood icon Anamika Anand in the series that was initially titled Finding Anamika
Why does the story matter?
This series is one of the most awaited ones for Bollywood fans as it has been over two years since we saw Dixit on the screen with her last film being Kalank (2019). Though she has made television appearances as a judge on several dance reality TV shows, it has been a while since we saw her performing as an actor.
