Shilpa Shetty Kundra’s upcoming drama, Sukhee, isn’t her first release in the last few years; however, it is a special one when pitted against the others. “It’s a film that releases in theatres,” she says, articulating a sentiment that has been shared by film folk accustomed to watching their names roll out on the big screen, before the lockdown changed the dynamics of the film industry. 

“It is a happy time for audiences and producers because cinematic [releases] have resumed,” says the actor, set to portray the challenges of an Indian homemaker in the Sonal Joshi-directed film.
