Mahesh Manjrekar's next woman oriented film is 'Deha'. Where Jaya Prada will see in a new look different from her traditional typical housewife. She will play a role of divorcee who falls in love with a younger man (Dino Morea). Mahesh says, "Deha is a film that takes off where Astitva ends. However, it's not a sequel to Astitva. The message of the film is that a bad marriage is not the end of a woman's life. It's only a man who can understand a woman's psyche. When you have a wife and a daughter, it's not difficult. I know exactly what's on their minds. With Deha, the men folk are going to hate me even more that they did when I made Astitva."
