Politics and Bollywood are a phenomenon in India. Its growing influence on the minds of the people is manifold. The portrayal of political inspired dramas in web series has been the recent flavour on the OTT platforms. As the digital space takes a grip over content, makers are now not shy about approaching the topic as going political on screen is getting a welcome with open arms. India is a land of politics and Indians lap up political news every time -- seeing that as an added advantage, content makers over the last few months have come out with successful and talked-about stories such as 'Tandav', 'City Of Dreams' and 'Madam Chief Minister', 'Maharani' to name a few.

Actress Richa Chadha, who played the title role in the film 'Madam Chief Minister' agrees the genre is intriguing and said that it is because everyone is affected by politics. Richa told IANS: "Why people generally find political dramas intriguing somewhere or another is because we are all affected by politics, we are affected by which party has won the state elections, who improves the condition of living among the people." The actress shared that when her film released that's when people realised the movie was not based on former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Mayawati.
