Yet again, choosing an impactful narrative, Shamita’s ‘The Tenant’ is a social drama written and directed by Sushrut Jain, that traces the story of a single, independent woman who rents out a flat in a conservative housing society, followed by the adolescent crushes to adult lust, the frowns, prejudices and snap judgements, presented her way.
Elated with the announcement, Shamita shares, "The Tenant is a reflection of society from a modern, independent, single woman's perspective, with experiences and learnings every woman in India has been subjected to at some point of her life. The compelling backdrop and sensitive as well as realistic narrative of the film connected with me, prompting me to instantly agree to do the film. I truly believe, every woman and the people around her, would deeply resonate with the story, offering a deeper insight into the disturbing, prevailing realities of the society we live in today.”
The film has a fantastic ensemble with Swanand Kirkire, Sheeba Chaddha, Atul Srivastava, Rudraksh Jaiswal and Harsh Mayar, among others.
‘The Tenant’ is produced by Kanchan Kalra, Daniel Walter and Sushrut Jain, releasing in theaters on Feb 10.
