Talented Marathi actress Asha Shelar, who is known for her acting chops in projects like Gachchi, Dashakriya and Nadi Vahate, has bagged a new show. As per a credible source, the veteran star will be seen in Zee TV’s upcoming show Kashibai Bajirao Ballal by Sobo Films.

The show will showcase the story of the great Maratha Empire, its pride and valor, all narrated from the lens of Kashibai. It will follow the journey of a pampered and a protected girl who goes on to become an astute, decision-making, Peshwinbai – an administrator par excellence who held the fort while Bajirao was out expanding the Maratha kingdom.

The show will feature a 9-year-old debutante Aarohi Patel as the young Kashibai.
