On the auspicious occasion of Dussehra, actress Sharvari took to her social media handle to share a heartfelt glimpse into her festive celebrations. Unable to be home for Saraswati Pooja, the actress performed a small puja in her room with a film script, captioning the story, “Couldn’t be home for Saraswati Pooja today, so did my own little Pooja with the script in my room.”
Sharvari added, “Starting to shoot a very special film with a very special director and team.” This subtle clue has sparked widespread speculation that she is hinting at her next big project — the much-anticipated Imtiaz Ali directorial announced earlier this year.
The story she shared, featuring a decorated script alongside festive flowers, aligns perfectly with the timing of the upcoming project set to go on floors in August 2025. Although Sharvari did not reveal the film’s title or any other names, the details match the exciting collaboration announced in June 2025, which brings together a stellar ensemble cast including Diljit Dosanjh, Naseeruddin Shah, Vedang Raina, and Sharvari herself.
Slated for a Baisakhi 2026 release, the film is described as a contemporary, witty take on the complexities of love and human connection. Imtiaz Ali, renowned for his emotionally layered storytelling, teased that this project is big-hearted and set on a large canvas while remaining deeply personal.
Speaking about the film’s emotional depth, the filmmaker shared a thought-provoking reflection inspired by the poet Momin:
“Tum mere paas hote ho goya, jab koi doosra nahin hota.”
He posed poignant questions: Can love really be lost? Can home be taken away from someone’s heart?
The film also marks the reunion of one of Bollywood’s most iconic creative teams — Imtiaz Ali, composer A. R. Rahman, and lyricist Irshad Kamil — who have previously delivered timeless soundtracks in blockbusters like *Rockstar*, *Highway*, and *Tamasha*. Fans can look forward to another memorable album that perfectly complements the emotional resonance of this story.
While Sharvari has yet to officially confirm if her Dussehra puja was indeed with Imtiaz Ali’s script, her post has undoubtedly added to the growing excitement and anticipation around the film.
