Actress-director Revathy, who was last seen as Kalki Koechlin's Aai in Margarita With A Straw, will now return as a yesteryear diva in the English-Hindi bilingual, Good Morning Sunshine, which kicked off on Tuesday with a two-day schedule in Mumbai. The Chennai-based actress plays the hot-headed Radha, who, after two decades bids adieu to an illustrious career and the city of Mumbai. She lives in a bubble of her own in a plush farmhouse, until aspiring director, Rai, played by Rituparna Sengupta, casts her in her debut film on the sanitation issues in rural India.

“There's a black scooty which is crucial to their journey to the remotest villages in India. They bond because of the two-wheeler and it's instrumental to how they find inspiration from real life for their film,“ says National Award winning director Sanjoy Nag, adding that the film moves back and forth in time with men swooping in as supporting heroes. “The casting for two male actors in currently underway.“ The unit will travel to the Sunderbans in October and will wrap up after a month-long stint in Uttar Pradesh. The film also has Tejaswini Kolhapure, last seen in Anurag Kashyap's Ugly, and Masaan actress Shweta Tripathi, who plays a runaway bride. “Her story adds spice to the film which is being filmed within the film. It throws light on the degradation women face, from inside high end apartments to chawls,“ Sanjoy signs off.
