being said about the actress producing comedy series in the US and, now
everything is out. PeeCee, who was last seen in the Hollywood film Baywatch, is
executive producing a comedy series about Bollywood's dancing diva

will also executive produce the project. The story would follow how Madhuri
settles down in the suburbs of the US with her bi-cultural family and tries to
bring her colourful lifestyle to an otherwise dull town.
In reality, Madhuri had taken a
break from showbiz when she married Sriram Nene, who was based in US back then
and shifted to Denver from Mumbai to start a family. The mother of two sons
returned to showbiz around five years ago, and continues to be one of the most
charming beauties in the Hindi film industry.
Sri Rao, a writer for shows like
"General Hospital: Night Shift", will pen the pilot and executive
produce the series, as will Madhuri's husband.
Just last month, Madhuri had teased
something new and exciting was going to be announced. "Loving downtime in
the US. Back up soon with announcements. Til then enjoy," she had tweeted.
