]]> Mumbai: Bollywood’s fitness icon and celebrated actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra is all set to grace the digital screen as the host of ZEE5’s latest non-fiction offering, ‘Maa Hai Na’. Announced this Sunday, the show is envisioned as a Hindi comedy cooking series that goes beyond recipes to explore the intricate emotional fabric of Indian households.

The Show’s Concept: Cooking with a Twist

Produced by Lil Frodo Productions House, the 10-episode series features six Gen Z celebrities paired with their mothers. The kitchen serves as a backdrop for high-stakes cooking challenges, but more importantly, it becomes a space for heart-to-heart conversations and rediscovering family bonds.

The makers describe the format as a study of “what happens when two generations are forced to truly listen to each other, one recipe at a time.” From nostalgia and laughter to the inevitable mother-child arguments, ‘Maa Hai Na’ captures the raw and authentic dynamics of modern Indian families.
