After donning the producer’s hat for a Marathi film, Bollywood’s Dhak Dhak girl is now all set to make her acting debut in Marathi films.

Reportedly, the film that will mark Madhuri’s Marathi cinema debut is a slice of life film that revolves around the self-realization journey of a women (played by Madhuri) with a dash of humor attached to its narrative style.

Madhuri, who believes cinema is beyond language and an effective story shown with expressive visuals can break language barriers and enthral audience across the globe, said, “Marathi cinema is evolving so beautifully and seeing such incredible stories being told makes me beam with pride. I have received a number of scripts over the years since doing a Marathi film was always something I was open to. But the scripts didn't excite me as this one did. When I read this script, it stood out and with the amazing team behind it, I knew that this is what I wanted to be a part of.”

Further talking about the film, Madhuri said, “It is a story of every household yet it has a silver lining. It not only gives you hope and inspiration but also encourages you to live life in the true sense. The most fascinating factor for me to choose it is that it is going to carve a niche in everyone's heart.”

The film will be directed by Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoskar who has also written the film along with Devashree Shivadekar. The film is co-produced by Subhedar and Aarti Subhedar of Blue Mustang Creations along with Vivek Rangachari and Arun Rangachari of Dar Motion Pictures (producers of The Lunch Box)

The film is in pre-production and is all set to go on floors by the end of this year.
