These days the lottery of skilled artists is out in Mumbai. The fees actor Manoj Bajpayee did not get even at the top of his film career, he is now getting for each series of OTT.

Karan Johar’s digital content production company Dharmatik is making an ambitious series ‘Finding Anamika’ featuring Madhuri Dixit. The series is being directed by Bejoy Nambiar and Karishma Kohli, who made headlines with the film ‘Taish’.
