Actor-producer Shweta Tripathi is expanding her storytelling universe with Nava, her first-ever horror project under her banner Bandarful Movies, created in association with Kowatanda Movies India. This marks her second production enterprise after the queer drama Mujhe Jaan Na Kaho Meri Jaan, starring Tilottama Shome, reaffirming her commitment to backing daring, original and culturally rooted narratives.
Shweta Tripathi to supply her first horror film Nava under Bandarful Movies in association with Kowatanda Movies India
Set against the hauntingly beautiful yet formidable wetlands of the Sundarbans, Nava follows the story of Tara, who returns to her ancestral home only to search out herself pulled right into a chilling, generation-old mystery involving river gods, buried family secrets and the uneasy coexistence of myth and memory. Written by Akash Mohimen, the film is positioned as an evocative mix of folklore, fear and emotional depth.
Speaking about producing her first horror film and continuing to diversify the stories she desires to champion, Shweta Tripathi shared, “Nava is a really special step for me as a producer. After Mujhe Jaan Na Kaho Meri Jaan, which was rooted in love and identity, I felt an instinctive pull to explore a very different emotional world. Horror, especially when woven with culture and folklore, has the facility to maneuver people in unexpected ways. The Sundarbans just isn’t only a backdrop on this story, it’s alive, it breathes, it protects and it threatens. When Akash narrated the script, I used to be taken in by its beauty, its fear, and its soul. As a producer, I need to support stories that take creative risks, which are layered, and that stick with the audience long after the film ends. Partnering with Kowatanda Movies India on Nava appears like the right collaboration because we share the identical passion for storytelling that’s each meaningful and cinematic.”
With Nava, Shweta steps deeper into the world of production, continuing her mission to nurture genre-driven, character-led Indian stories that challenge the traditional and have a good time authenticity.
