Breaking away from the traditional narrative where male characters dominate officer roles, Badhan found the prospect of portraying a female police officer uniquely captivating as the director unravelled the story's intricacies.

Zaaya became quite popular after people watched REKKA starring the gorgeous actress Azmeri Haque Badhan. Her saris became a cult favourite after the airing of the web-series, early this year.

I watched the web series for three main reasons — my undying affection for thrillers written by Bengali writers (this particular one also had a hint of supernatural thrown into it – talk about luck!). For the protagonists of the series, played by favourites (colossal fan of Azmeri Haque Badhon and Rahul Bose).
