An intriguing film is quietly taking shape, and if industry chatter is to be believed, it could see an unexpected pairing come together. Raveena Tandon and Kapil Sharma are said to be the frontrunners for a slice-of-life drama being developed for Netflix, with Sharat Katariya set to direct.

Katariya has earlier helmed movies like ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ (2015) and ‘Sui Dhaaga’ (2018). While plot details of his new venture are tightly under wraps, insiders describe the film as “an intimate story about relationships and everyday dreams.”

Unlike loud, high-concept spectacles, this one is reportedly designed to feel lived-in. “It’s very much in Sharat’s zone, flawed but lovable characters navigating ordinary life. The emotional core is strong, and that’s why casting is crucial. You need performers who can balance authenticity with star presence.”

If the casting goes through, this will mark Raveena and Kapil’s first on-screen collaboration. A look test and photoshoot was scheduled on Sunday [March 1], following which the film is expected to go on floors this month itself with a tightly planned schedule.
