Kalyani Priyadarshan shares heartfelt clicks on the occasion of Onam, stating that she missed celebrating the festival at home, owing to working on a new film. For those unaware, the actress is currently shooting for her new movie, “Pralay,” where she stars opposite Ranveer Singh.

Taking to social media, Kalyani wrote, “Fully locked in to Pralay in Mumbai this Onam, so no Sadhya with the fam, no pretty white saree pics, no festive content. Here's a dump of random things from the last couple months instead. Hope you all had a truly happy Onam.” The actress explains that she was busy shooting for “Pralay,” which made her miss the festival. The photo collection includes selfies that she clicked over the months and a glimpse into the script of “Pralay.” The opening page reads “Pralay, a Jai Mehta film” and credits Vishal Kapoor and Jai Mehta as writers. The glimpse has also given fans a small peek into the project, which continues to remain under wraps. The film marks an exciting new addition to Kalyani’s upcoming slate.

Pralay” is a post-apocalyptic, zombie survival thriller. The film is being shot at live locations in and around Mumbai, as the makers lean into the physicality and unpredictability of real-world locations. The approach also adds to the immersive quality of a world on the verge of annihilation, making for a more intense theatrical experience.

The movie brings Ranveer and Kalyani together for the first time. While Ranveer’s last releases were the successful movies “Dhurandhar” and “Dhurandhar: The Revenge,” Kalyani was seen in “Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra.”
