Actress turned director Revathy and Bollywood queen Kajol have joined hands for an upcoming film titled The Last Hurrah. The announcement was made on social media by Kajol herself. Sharing a picture of the two, Kajol said that she could not help but say “yes” when the film came her way.
In a note accompanying the image, the actress said, “So happy to announce my next film with the super awesome Revathy directing me called The Last Hurrah. A heartwarming story that made me instantly say, Yes.”

Inspired by a true story and real characters, The Last Hurrah tells a tale of an exemplary mother, Sujata, who battled the most challenging situations one can ever face with a smile. The film is currently in pre-production and will soon go on floors.
Talking about her first collaboration with Kajol and choosing this story for her, Revathy shares, “Sujata’s journey in The Last Hurrah is extremely close to my heart. It’s not only relatable but also inspiring. When Suuraj, Shraddha and I were discussing this film, Kajol was the first person who came to our mind. Her soft yet energetic eyes and her beautiful smile will make you believe that anything is possible and that is exactly how Sujata is. I am very excited for this collaboration and to be working with Kajol for this ‘heartening story’.”
The Last Hurrah is bankrolled by Suuraj Singh and Shraddha Agrawal under Blive Productions and Take 23 Studios Production banner.
Kajol last featured in the Netflix film Tribhanga along with Tanvi Azmi and Mithila Palkar. Revathi, who won a National Award for her debut film ‘Mitr- My Friend’, released in 2002, has directed two feature films and two short films on an anthology.
