Trailer: 'Money is our second God', Monalisa shines in a story of violence and pain

The trailer for Monalisa's debut film 'The Diary of Manipur' has been released, showcasing her role as a simple village girl amidst a backdrop of violence in Manipur.

The trailer for 'The Diary of Manipur' features Monalisa, who gained fame at the Prayagraj Kumbh, playing the role of a naïve girl from a village. This film, directed by Sanoj Mishra, has faced numerous controversies and challenges in its production, yet it has now made its way to audiences. The film has not yet revealed a release date, but the director has encouraged fans to show their support.

Monalisa's character represents the loneliness of a girl living in a violent environment, surrounded by nature and animals as her friends. Opposite her is Abhishek Tripathi, with a love affair storyline that adds to the film's narrative depth. The chemistry between the leads is reportedly engaging, but the character remains oblivious to the storm that is about to disrupt her seemingly happy life, driven by the turmoil in Manipur.

The plot also addresses the controversial issue of religious conversion, depicting a group that lures tribals to Christianity with promises of financial rewards and better conditions for marriage and education. This socio-political commentary intertwines with the personal story of Monalisa, highlighting the broader implications of violence and societal challenges in the region.
