Here’s what motivated Priya Bapat to take up a web series

Mumbai: Web Series are surely the in thing nowadays and so many actors, irrespective of their stardom, are being seen in them. Marathi superstar Priya Bapat has also bagged a web series called 'City Of Dreams'.

She adds, “In the digital medium, there are lots of varieties in content, through which an actor can explore their talent.”

When asked the thought process behind singing 'City of Dreams', she says, "Well, the first reason why I decided to work in this web series is obviously that Nagesh Kukunoor was going to direct it. Secondly, the most important reason was I have never been part of a story which was politics-based and one which has realistic characters. There isn't any fake heroism in the film. All the characters in the web series are very real and true. There's nothing in black and white. So, that was another reason why I fell in love with the character that was offered to me. I have never played such a role before.”
