Shamita Shetty is excited about her next film The Tenant, which will be helmed by Sushrut Jain. Set in India, The Tenant is written by Jain, who traces his roots to India. He is settled in Los Angeles.

Touted as an international project, The Tenant is about a woman with a mysterious past. Shamita will be seen playing the lead role of the woman whose arrival in a middle-class housing society causes a stir.

"I have started with the workshop and I am absolutely loving it. This is such a learning curve. I am looking forward to starting the shoot," Shamita said.

The actor, who was last seen in web series Yo Ke Hua Bro, will start shooting for the project later this month. The shooting will go on until May. 

Jain is known for Beyond All Boundaries and Andheri.
