Guneet Monga has a sharp eye for offbeat stories. In 2021, her production Pagglait—a heart-warming story of a young widow discovering herself in the aftermath of her husband’s demise—received much love from audiences. Now, Monga is reuniting with Pagglait director Umesh Bist for another comedy drama. The yet-untitled project will be officially announced in April, after the producer returns from Los Angeles, where she is currently promoting The Elephant Whisperers, which has bagged a Best Documentary Short Film nomination at the 95th Academy Awards.

We hear that the script of Monga’s next with Bist is ready. A source reveals, “Like Pagglait, their second collaboration will also be a touching comedy. The narrative will revolve around two female characters. The cast will be finalised after Guneet returns from Los Angeles.”
