Acclaimed actress Shweta Tripathi is set to make her mark as a producer, with four exciting projects in the pipeline spanning diverse genres. Among them, her debut production is a queer love story between two women, a project she initially joined as an actor before deciding to back it as a producer. The film, which celebrates LGBTQIA+ representation, is a deeply personal and significant step in her journey as a storyteller.  

Speaking about her decision, Shweta Tripathi shared, "When this script came to me as an actor, I was instantly drawn to its honesty, sensitivity, and the way it portrayed love in its purest form. As I delved deeper, I realized how important it was for this story to be told the right way. That’s when I decided to step in as a producer. This is not just a film; it’s a celebration of love, identity, and the courage to be oneself. As a producer, I now have the creative freedom to tell stories, and I couldn’t have asked for a better beginning."

Apart from this queer romance, Shweta’s production slate includes, a horror film, a drama and a psychological thriller.  Beyond these, Shweta is also keen to produce children stories, a genre close to her heart. She believes that the films we grow up watching shape us in profound ways, and she hopes to create stories that leave a lasting impact on young minds.   Shweta adds, "Children’s films played a huge role in shaping my personality. They teach empathy, curiosity, and courage in ways that stay with you for life. As a producer, I want to create films that not only entertain but also inspire the next generation."
