Tanvi The Great also stars Game of Thrones actor Iain Glen and features sound design by Resul Pookutty, the Academy Award-winning sound designer known for Slumdog Millionaire.
The film is set to have its world premiere at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, within the Marche du Film.
Earlier, the actor opened up about his new project and how it differs from his debut directorial, Om Jai Jagdish, in 2002. Taking to his Instagram handle, Anupam shared a photo in which he was seen wearing a director's shirt while posing for the photograph. The Saaransh actor reflected on his debut directorial, Om Jai Jagdish, and said that he loved working on that film as the director.
Now, after 23 years, the actor has donned the director's cap once again to showcase his filmmaking skills with Tanvi The Great.
"It took me 23 years to wear a #Director t-shirt again! I loved directing the first film, #OmJaiJagdish. The ability I had. I made the film accordingly. But the story of that movie wasn't mine," wrote Anupam.
Directed by Anupam Kher, with music composed by Oscar-winner MM Keeravani, Tanvi The Great is produced by Anupam Kher Studios in collaboration with NFDC. The release date for Tanvi The Great is yet to be announced.

Bhopal bridge takes a sharp turn - literally: Internet explodes with memes
A brand-new railway overbridge in Bhopal has become the centre of heated online debate – not for its utility, but for an eyebrow-raising 90-degree turn in its design. Located near Aishbagh Stadium in Madhya Pradesh, images of the bizarre bridge design have gone viral, prompting concerns from social media users about potential safety risks for commuters. One X (formerly known as Twitter) user, with a username, 'The Skin Doctor', shared an image of the bridge, calling it a 'modern engineering marvel', sarcastically. 'This is the Aishbagh rail-over-bridge in Bhopal. PWD civil engineers took 10 years to create this. That 90° turn is a disaster waiting to happen unless there's proper banking, signage, speed breakers, and lighting,' the post read. The user also criticised the turn as a traffic choke point and questioned its long-term viability. What's the reason behind the design? Officials linked to the project explained that the bridge's sharp turn was a result of land constraints and the proximity of a metro rail station. According to the Public Works Department (Bridge Department) Chief Engineer V.D. Verma, "Due to the metro station, there is limited land availability. The design was the only feasible option to connect the two colonies." Verma further clarified that only small vehicles will be allowed to use the overbridge, with safety protocols including speed limits, lighting, and signage to be maintained as per Indian Road Congress guidelines. Made with a budget of ₹18 crore, the 648-metre-long and 8.5-metre-wide bridge aims to improve connectivity for Aishbagh residents. It is expected to reduce commute times by removing the need to wait at a level crossing or take longer alternate routes. X users react with memes and mockery Social media reactions have ranged from humorous to scathing. Some users suggested the bridge looked like it belonged in a video game, while others slammed it as a 'waste of taxpayer money.' 'This is what happens when accountability is a myth,' one user wrote. 'PWD gems like this belong in a museum,' joked another. One user shared their thoughts on this bridge, saying, 'Merit wale engineers hi aisa marvel bana sakte hai.' Another user wrote, 'Pura 90 degree to nehi hai magar ye engineering ka ek nayab marvel hai jarur, hat's off to all those involved in this great project, company ka maal dariya mein daal jaisa ho gaya.' 'A PWD Gem. This should make it to some Architectural Hall of Fame !!' another wrote. Congress' Kerala X handle took a dig at the government and wrote: 'Elite design team under the leadership of @AshwiniVaishnaw has built an engineering marvel in Bhopal. A right angle Railway Over Bridge. While ordinary engineers would have gone straight across the hypotenuse (√(3² + 4²) = 5), this team cleverly chose 3 + 4 = 7. Longer route, bigger budget, more chances to siphon off public money. True innovation.'

Shah Rukh's fans offended as Aamir Khan says he rejected 'boring' Swades: ‘Will be happy when Sitare Zameen Par flops'
Aamir Khan opened a can of worms with his statement on Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Swades. In a recent interview, the actor said he rejected Ashutosh Gowariker's film because he found it 'very boring'. The internet hasn't taken Aamir's comment lightly and has been writing about why Swades is a masterpiece in Indian cinema, with some adding that they would even rejoice if his upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par fails. (Also read: Aamir Khan reveals he rejected Shah Rukh's Swades because he found the script 'boring': Maine ab tak film dekhi nahi hai) In an interview with Zoom, Aamir said, 'I found it very boring! I had said this to Ashu when he narrated the whole story to me. In fact, I'll tell you, Ashu narrated the story to me when we were making Lagaan. It was titled Kaveri Amma then. That's what he told me.' As soon as the interview dropped, the internet started buzzing with reactions. One comment on X (formerly called Twitter) read, 'This portion of a song from Swades has more message than the entire filmography of Aamir👍Swades is the best movie from Indian cinema. Every dialogue and scene of Swades teaches you the values of life.' Another fan wrote, 'I will be very happy when Sitare Zameen par flops, this guy has crossed all limits to demean Srk, despite srk supporting his son's debut film and went to premier as well (sic).' Another fan commented, 'Swades would've been really boring with Aamir. It's Shah Rukh's eyes - that quiet intensity, the unspoken emotion - that breathe life into Mohan Bhargav. That kind of magic isn't something the other one could ever replicate' A fan commented, 'Swades still remains so relevant and an significant impact to cinema, Aamir wouldn't do, what SRK did in this film, one of the greatest from Hindi Cinema.' Another fan commented, 'Actually true. If Aamir had done Swades, it would have been boring and no one would have remembered this film. Its Shah Rukh Khan's remarkable performance what made this a cult classic. The film aged better than Lagaan and still relevent after 20 years.' Directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, Swades is considered one of the best performances of Shah Rukh's career. The film went on to win two national awards in 2004 and has attained cult classic status among film lovers. The audience will see Aamir Khan next in Sitaare Zameen Par. Directed by RS Prasanna,it will be released in theatres on 20 June.
