Madhuri Dixit will make her international debut with a show based on her life and it is expected to go on floors soon, she said while speaking to a leading daily. The show is being produced by Priyanka Chopra and has been reportedly picked up by ABC Studios while Madhuri said that the script is being developed at the moment.
"Television works in a different way in the West. They select a script and commission it only if they want to start it in that particular season. The channel heads have the concept and are mulling over it. Meanwhile, we are writing the script. Once they are ready to roll, we will be too," Madhuri told the daily.

Madhuri, however, said that the sitcom isn’t a biopic but it is based on the time she spent in the US after her wedding to Dr Sriram Nene. "It's not my life story as that will be too boring," she added.
The show, in fact, will involve a comical element as well, Madhuri said, adding that writer Sri Rao is scripting the series accordingly. "We are offering a comic take on how a Bollywood actor settles down in the American suburbs. The series will be an amalgamation of my experiences, a superstar whose world changes once she migrates to another country where nobody knows her,” Madhuri added.
