Shabana has produced Mee Raqsam, which released on Zee5. Marking the directorial debut of her brother, formerly a cinematographer, Mee Raqsam is not only a tribute to her father, Urdu poet Kaifi Azmi, it is also the story about a brave, progressive father who fights social bigotry for his daughter’s happiness.
Writing about it, the Hindustan Times review said: “Mee Raqsam is produced by actor Shabana Azmi, directed by her brother Baba Azmi and is a tribute to their late father Kaifi Azmi. Shabana once said that her father told her he would support her if she wanted to be an actress. With Mee Raqsam, Kaifi’s children are telling the story of a father much like him—one who puts his child’s dreams and happiness above all else, even if it takes away all he has.”
