“Set in an aristocratic household with a wedding backdrop where the entire family assembles, the drama unfolds through the multi-faceted characters with the arrival of a stranger Uma,” read the official synopsis of the movie.

Aggarwal, known for starring in blockbuster films Singham, Magadheera and Mersal, said she is excited to delve deep into the world of Uma.

“I’m always keen to give a green signal to scripts that are fun, entertaining yet challenging for me as an actor. I’m excited to share Uma with all of you.

“I am very happy to be collaborating with AVMA Media, Avishek and director Tathagata, on an extremely interesting film,” the 35-year-old actor said in a statement.

The makers will soon announce other cast members.
