IANS

Writer and filmmaker Tahira Kashyap Khurrana is set to collaborate with producer Guneet Monga for an upcoming film. The duo has earlier worked in a short film titled Pinni which was part of Zindagi Inshorts.

The film is yet-to-be titled and will be backed by Guneet’s Sikhya Entertainment. The information on the cast and crew of the film is also yet to be revealed.

Speaking about the collaboration, Tahira said, “Guneet is an incredible collaborator, a maverick in making special stories seen and heard. I have immense respect for her in the way she trusts a director's vision and lets the story fly. I had the most beautiful experience while working on our short film and I think both of us sort of made a pact in an unsaid way of collaborating on many things together in future. Our energies were so synced and I am elated that the vision we had is now becoming a reality and we are coming together with a film that we both truly believe in."

Calling Tahira a “good writer” with “deep understanding of human relationship”, Guneet said that Tahira is able to convey intimate connections with her writing. “As a production house, we were drawn to Pinni (Short Film) because of the subtext alongside a truly empowering story. Her view of this world and her understanding cuts across classes. Tahira's approach and sensitivity is what I truly find fascinating,” she added.

Tahira and Guneet have also been part of Indian Women Rising, a cinema collective intended to support women voices of the industry.
