In the 10 years since she set foot in the world of fashion, armed with her love for quirky prints and rich hues, Masaba Gupta has become one of the leading couturiers. Her journey — including her lineage, her professional highs, her fight for body positivity, and her personal life — is worthy of storytelling. So, it's not surprising that Netflix has sanctioned a web series that will be loosely inspired by the designer's life. The Sonam Nair-directed project, produced and conceptualised by Ashvini Yardi, will be headlined by Masaba and actor-mother Neena, thus marking their first outing on screen.

A trade source says, "Masaba and Ashvini have been spotted together on several occasions over the past year. It has now emerged that the two were finalising the concept of the show. While the web series takes inspiration from Masaba's life, it has been fictionalised to an extent. It will see Masaba as a fashion designer who navigates her professional and personal life after her divorce. No prizes for guessing that Neena will be seen as her mother. Both women loved the concept and immediately said yes."
