 Tanuja is all set to for a television debut with a historical drama, Aarambh.The 73-year-old, best known for her roles in films like Jewel Thief, Haathi Mere Saathi and Anubhav, will be seen as Hahuma - a mind reader.

 Talking about the subject of matriarchy and concept of the show, she said, "This show through visuals tells us how a matriarchal society became patriarchal. There should be equality among humans whether it is a girl or a boy. Through this show, we are trying to bring in change. That's the intention."

 Asked about the male dominated society of modern India, Tanuja said: "It is a duty of every individual to change his or her mentality. You need to do self-introspection.We should think in our mind what we are saying is correct or not. Also, we need to listen to others. When this happens, there would be a change in the society.”

 Witten by K. V. Vijayendra Prasad of Baahubali and Bajrangi Bhaijaan fame, Aarambh will narrate the clash of two civilisations - Dravidians and Aryans.
