Sushmita Sen is roaring once again and how as Aarya Sareen in the third season of Hotstar Specials' Aarya. The trailer of the Ram Madhvani-created show released on Thursday at an event in Mumbai. During the press conference, the superstar opened up about returning to acting after a decade-long sabbatical and being welcomed warmly by the audience.

Sushmita said, "See, my biggest blessing in life is that where we can think about this, that maybe he or she or somebody else didn't give me that chance or they couldn't recognise my potential. It's a very small thing. The big thing is that I will be 30 years old in 2024. 30 years in this. And I was 18 years old when I was made to stand on a stage like this and I met for the first time my people, my country, my identity."

She further added, "After 30 years of that, whatever I have done in life, my people have supported me. It's such a big thing that in that industry, where I left my work for 8 years in prime time, that industry welcomed me again with so much love. Why? Because my audience is great. And as long as they want to see me, nobody can harm me."

Talking about Aarya 3, Sushmita said in a statement, "Aarya is the brightest jewel in my crown. Portraying her has been an empowering journey. What fuels my excitement for season 3 of Aarya is that she's totally unabashed and ruling the game of life once played with her. She's making new enemies and new allies because this Sherni is now the new Don in town. Ram Madhvani has really grown the action, emotions and twists three-fold in this new season, so, get ready to meet the Sherni only on Disney+ Hotstar."

Created and co-directed by the ace filmmaker Ram Madhvani and co-produced by Amita Madhavni, Ram Madhvani, Ram Madhvani Films and Endemol Shine India, Aarya Season 3 is set to stream exclusively on Disney+ Hotstar from 3rd November onwards. Starring Sushmita Sen as Aarya Sareen, the web series features a talented ensemble cast which includes Ila Arun, Sikandar Kher, Indraneil Sengupta, Vikas Kumar, Maya Sarao, Geetanjali Kulkarni, Shweta Pasricha, Viren Vazirani, Pratyaksh Panwar, Aarushi Bajaj, Bhupendra Jadawat and Vishwajeet Pradhan amongst others.
