Interesting choice of writers from advertising backgrounds. Hope the script lives up to the hype. Kher's last directorial was decent but not groundbreaking. Fingers crossed this one delivers!

That cast looks so international! Iain Glen from Game of Thrones and Anupam Kher together - what an unexpected combination. Really curious about the story now.

The title "Tanvi The Great" has me intrigued. Is this based on a true story or completely fictional? Either way, the passion Kher is showing for this project is infectious!

While I admire Kher's enthusiasm, I hope the final product matches the buildup. Sometimes too much behind-the-scenes content can create unrealistic expectations. That said, wishing the team all the best!
