  • Kal Penn Wraps Shooting For 'The Ashram'
Indo-American actor Kal Penn has wrapped shooting for Guneet Monga's upcoming project "The Ashram".
 
Monga took to Twitter on Saturday, where she shared a photograph of herself along with the actor and said that it was a pleasure working with Penn.
 
"And it's a wrap for Kal Penn for 'The Ashram' ! Such a pleasure working with you... Thank you! Super excited," she tweeted.
 
Monga has roped in other actors like Melissa Leo, Sam Keeley, Hera Hilmar and Radhika Apte. 
 
With Ben Rekhi as the director, the film is an English-language spiritual fantasy thriller set in the mystical world of Himalayan yogis.
 
“The Ashram” revolves around an American skeptic Jamie, who upon receiving a cryptic message, travels to the Indian Himalayas to pick up on the trail of his disappeared girlfriend. What he uncovers during his journey, forms the rest of the plot. 
 
Monga is best known for co-producing films like “Gangs of Wasseypur” and “The Lunchbox”, both of which garnered critical acclaim. And she is now looking forward to make more films for the world.
