Showrunner, Executive Producer and Writer Madhuri Shekar on adapting Jhumpa Lahiri's Pulitzer Prize-winning collection of short stories into one interwoven story, "This image came to me of all of these characters from the different stories sitting around the Thanksgiving table together... these connections started forming between them. This beautiful community just blossomed."
