Five reasons why you shouldn’t miss Manisha Koirala-starrer ‘Dear Maya’ this Friday

Manisha’s comeback movie

One of the most prettiest actresses of the 90's, Manisha Koirala is making a comeback with this movie. After battling cancer and emerging victorious, this is the first time that the audience will see her on screen.

Manisha in a deglam role

Another interesting fact is that the audiences will see her in a deglam role. Well, we know this isn't the first time that Manisha has gone deglam, but it's going to be interesting seeing her in a role that's completely in contrast with her vivacious and charming personality.

Sunaina Bhatnagar’s directorial debut

Director Sunaina Bhatnagar marks her directorial debut with this movie. She has worked as an assistant director with none other than Imtiaz Ali for almost 6 years. She has assisted him on films like 'Jab We Met', 'Love Aaj Kal', 'Rockstar' and some commercials. So considering the fact that she has worked as an AD on such amazing movies, her directorial debut is going to be equally good.

Two fresh faces

Apart from being Sunaina's directorial debut, the movie also marks the debut of two new actresses, Shreya Singh Chaudhary and Madiha Imam. Shreya Singh Chaudhary was a model who has acted in various commercials and also walked at the Lakme Fashion Week. This is her first movie as an actress and her free-spirited character of Ira looks interesting. The other actress Madiha Imam has been a VJ in Pakistan and now as she is all set to make her Bollywood debut as Anna in the movie, all eyes are on this talent from across the border.

Intriguing concept

The concept of 'Dear Maya' is intriguing as it brings back the lost era of penning letters to your loved ones. The movie depicts how a woman in her 40's has locked herself up for 20 long years in her bungalow because she hasn't been loved in her life and how two teenagers write fake love letters to her in an attempt to revive her dull life. We haven't really seen such concept until now and it's going to be intriguing to see how Maya Devi believes the fake love letters and moves to another city to search for the man.
