It traces the story of young and rebellious Devika, and her journey through life with love, passion, heartbreak, sex, self-destruction and redemption.
Ghosh says the series will challenge the notion of being a "good girl". "Ekta is the czarina of disruptive content and who better than her to take the digital world by storm. 'Dev DD' is unique in more than one way. It challenges the notion of a 'heroine' and what a 'good girl' is, and has fun while doing it," Ghosh said.
