Theatre actress Aahana Kumra, who will be seen in megastar Amitabh Bachchan's TV show 'Yudh', says it is a dream come true to work with him.
Aahana, who has earlier worked in films like 'The Blueberry Hunt' and Makrand Deshpande's 'Sona Spa', is making her television debut on the small screen with drama series 'Yudh'.
She will be essaying the role of Bachchan's daughter in the show, who is playing an oncologist's role.
"I had never thought in my wildest dream that I will get a chance to work with Mr Bachchan, that too so early in my career. I had thought, I will probably get a chance to do an ad. Working him with for almost a year is like going on a 'tirtha yatra'," the actress said in a statement here.
Apart from Bachchan, the show actors Sarika, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Kay Kay Menon, director Tigmanshu Dhulia among others.
Directed by Ribhu Dasgupta, the show has filmmaker Anurag Kashyap as the creative director and Shoojit Sircar as creative consultant.
'Yudh' is likely to go on air this month on Sony Entertainment Television.
