The Oscar win for Guneet Monga is nothing but a validation of her years of hard work gone into backing films she believed in by raising money through social media to selling her only house. Though she received the Academy Award for her documentary short Period. End of sentence, Guneet has also been associated with critically-acclaimed films like The Lunchbox, Masaan and Haraamkhor.

Monga, who is all set to co-produce Suriya's next titled Soorarai Pottru, says the southern star is one of the best actors in the country. On venturing into Tamil films, Monga said, "We are so thrilled to start our journey in Tamil cinema with none other than Suriya for our film Soorarai Pottru."
