Announcing her new film on her social media page, Bollywood actress Vidya Balan wrote, “Stoked about my next - an untitled charming drama-comedy about modern relationships, which promises to be either your story or the story of your friend. It will make you laugh and cry in equal measure and I'm enjoying playing Kavya to the hilt.” The film will also star Pratik Gandhi, Ileana D’Cruz and Indo-American actor Sendhil Ramamurthy in the lead. The unique and fresh cast will be directed by ad-maker Shirsha Guha Thakurta.

 

The yet to be titled film will mark Vidya’s first project with production house Applause Entertainment and second with Ellipsis Entertainment, who had also produced her 2017 film Tumhari Sulu. Beauty and the Beast American actor Sendhil shared his excitement on the project and wrote, “So psyched to return to Mumbai after a decade to film a truly remarkable script - a yet-untitled drama-comedy about modern relationships, to be directed by Shirsha. When I was told that it would be with amazing actors like Vidya Balan, Pratik Gandhi, and Ileana, I was doubly excited.” 

 

Director Thakurta said, “When I first heard this story, I was instantly attracted to its universe-honest, funny and so today. The actors have been a dream to work with. Their generosity is something I will cherish...Yes, I am nervous but this journey so far has been truly special.”
