Masaba and Kareena collaborate on Marvel’s Wastelanders

Masaba and Kareena 
  • Kareena Kapoor and Masaba Gupta collaborate for Marvel’s Wastelanders.
  • Kareena playing Helen Black and Masaba playing Lisa Cartwright.
  • A private security analyst hired by S.H.I.E.L.D.

In their most recent endeavor, Kareena Kapoor and Masaba Gupta will be working together on the upcoming Hindi Audible original podcast Marvel’s Wastelanders: Black Widow. Kareena assumes the role of the well-known superhero who relocates to a brand-new condominium in midtown Manhattan that is owned and managed by S.H.I.E.L.D. She goes by Helen Black, and she has a secret goal that she would like to retain for the time being. Masaba is Lisa Cartwright, who has been tasked by S.H.I.E.L.D. with spying on the residents as a Junior Residential Security Analyst for a private security firm. Helen is not at all who she seems to be, she discovers as she examines the woman.

In the post-apocalyptic future shown in Marvel’s Wastelanders: Black Widow, the supervillains have destroyed the superheroes 30 years prior. While most people accept the gloomy reality, a few surviving superheroes, notably Black Widow, are making changes in whatever way they can.

At a Mumbai event introducing the six-part podcast series, Kareena said it was an honor to be a part of the series while speaking to artistic director Mantra Mugdh. I’m beyond thrilled to be a part of it, she exclaimed. The more I read about this role, the more I thought, “Okay, now I see why people want to portray it.” because I absolutely related to it. I believe Black Widow has always been fearless, strong, and wise.. Though I wouldn’t describe her as manipulating, she does seem to have a sense of when to act. Somehow, I just felt an instant connection since it was so fierce. I’m hoping that by using my voice, I can give this beautiful character a unique spin. It will be incredible to be a part of it and work with such incredible performers and voices. We have only just begun this adventure, so having my beautiful buddy Masaba along for the ride is also advantageous to both of us.

Masaba Gupta is making her audio debut with the series, similar to Kareena. She said that although it was a challenge, the cast was willing to accept it. She remarked, “Lisa Cartwright is outstanding in my opinion because of her calm intelligence. She is incredibly intelligent and insightful, but she also doesn’t take herself too seriously. I find everything that occurs in their relationship, especially with Helen Black, to be really intriguing. I won’t reveal anything, though. I’m quite excited since it’s unique and difficult to construct an universe using only your voice. Of course, I also like Kareena Kapoor Khan. I couldn’t have asked for someone better, so I’m glad it’s with her.”

Along with Kareena and Masaba, the cast of the podcast series, which premieres in June, has also been revealed to include Saif Ali Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, Sharad Kelkar, Ashish Vidhyarthi, Vrajesh Hirjee, Mithila Palkar, Sushant Digvikr, Prajakta Koli, Yashaswini Dayama, and Anangsha Biswas.
