While the world tried to fit her into boxes, she chose to break them, one by one. #TanviTheGreat is a reminder that being different doesn't make you less, it makes you unstoppable. Unveiling the first poster of Tanvi The Great - a story of strength, dreams, and unstoppable courage. Meet Tanvi in cinemas on 18th July."

Pratap Raina in his directorial venture. While introducing his character, Anupam Kher opened up about the challenges of wearing two hats as both an actor and a director for his film "Tanvi The Great."

He shared the difficulties of balancing both roles, revealing how the experience pushed him creatively.

Talking about playing Col. Pratap Raina in the movie, Anupam Kher shared, "The most difficult thing is to act and direct a film simultaneously. Luckily, I was surrounded by an extremely experienced technical team and a brilliant set of actors. They made my job slightly easy. Otherwise, Col. Pratap Raina is complexed. But he changes. And that change hopefully formulates his performance in #TanviTheGreat. Watch it and then decide."

"Tanvi The Great" is slated to hit theatres on 18th July.

The concept sounds inspiring but I hope it's not just another patriotic film with clichés. Anupam sir is brilliant but new director Anupam needs to prove himself. Wishing the team all the best though!

Cannes premiere is huge! Shows the international appeal of Indian stories. The cast looks solid with veterans like Boman Irani and Jackie Shroff. Hope the debutante Shubhangi can hold her own among these stalwarts.

"Being different doesn't make you less" - what a powerful message! ❤️ Our cinema needs more stories like this that celebrate individuality. The army backdrop makes it even more interesting. Hope it lives up to the hype!

Anupam Kher playing an army officer again after 'A Wednesday'? Hope he brings something new to the table this time. The production values look top-notch from the poster. Fingers crossed for a meaningful film!

The cast is like a who's who of talented actors! But I'm most excited to see Pallavi Joshi - she's been giving such powerful performances lately. Hope this film gets a proper release with good promotions.
