Anupam Kher has been acting in films since the early '80s and after starring in Indian films for almost two decades, he turned to direction with the 2002 family drama Om Jai Jagadish starring Anil Kapoor, Fardeen Khan and Abhishek Bachchan in the titular roles.
The film received mixed reviews and became a box office disaster earning only Rs 6.15 crore in India and Rs 13.74 crore globally on a budget of Rs 13 crore.

However, the film became a big success on TV and generated good viewership whenever it aired.
Now, 23 years after his directorial debut, Anupam Kher has returned to filmmaking with the upcoming film Tanvi The Great.
The actor-filmmaker shared a "mysterious" first look teaser of the film featuring the titular character of Tanvi and gave us a glimpse of her life but refrained from revealing anything else about her including her face.
Sharing the teaser, Anupam Kher wrote, "FIRST LOOK: मैंने #तन्वीदग्रेट फ़िल्म बनाने का फ़ैसला आज से लगभग चार साल पहले लिया था! और फिर चार साल लगे इसे लिखकर बनाने में! अब मेरे इस 'दिल के टुकड़े' को आप सबके साथ शेयर करने का वक्त आ गया है! पर धीरे धीरे! और बहुत प्यार के साथ! Is she extraordinary? Is she unique? Does she have a superpower? We don't know? What we know is that…. Tanvi is different but no less! #TanviTheGreat Coming soon! (I decided to make Tanvi The Great four years ago. It took me four years to write the film. Now, I have decided to share 'a piece of my heart' with all of you with a lot of love.)"
