Ekta Kapoor was waiting for OTT platforms to release The Married Woman

According to a report by Mid Day, Ekta has said that she waited to make the drama show on an OTT platform because it would not do justice to the content if it would be made into a film or a television serial. She also has said that she loved the book the series is based on and felt that she could not make a television serial or a film out of it. She also feels that a digital platform is a perfect medium for it. 

The Married Woman is based on a novel authored by Manju Kapoor. The Married Woman casts Riddhi Dogra and Monica Dogra in titular roles. Other cast members of the film include Imaad Shah, Ayesha Raza, Rahul Vohra, Divya Seth Shah, Nadira Babbar and Suhaas Ahuja.
