Ram Kamal Mukherjee, who also penned down Hema Malini’s autobiography in 2005, has directed the short film.
Cakewalk is a story revolving around Deol’s character of a chef, portraying the professional and personal journey of women in the Indian society. The film will also star television actor Tarun Malhotra, Anindita Bose and Siddhartha Chatterjee.
Talking about the project, Deol revealed “the idea came to Ram Kamal’s mind after he interacted with a couple of working women from various walks of life. He has beautifully woven those incidents in his narrative.”
The actress was last seen on the popular TV show MTV Roadies in 2015.
