I have always wanted to work on a women-centric film and finally I am able to do so,” Shree said in a statement. The story, about a “leased womb”, is written by Siddharth-Garima, who researched on the topic for three years. Set in the 90s in the vibrant and rustic Gujarat, Jasmine is touted to be an unprecedented journey of a girl to motherhood and what happens when a mother falls in love with a child who is not even her own. “This is the story of an eternal love between a mother and a child,” the synopsis read. Produced by KriArj Entertainment and Mukambika pictures, the film will start rolling next year. The cast will be announced shortly.
