US-based Indian filmmaker Mira Nair says she is working on a Broadway musical adaptation of her much-acclaimed movie "Monsoon Wedding".

"I am also doing a Broadway musical adaptation of my earlier film 'Monsoon Wedding', which will be released in the spring of 2012, " Nair said.

Speaking to reporters Tuesday on the sidelines of the 41st International Film Festival of India (IFFI), Nair added: "I am also working on a mini television series, but it is still in the early stages. "

Talking about "Shantaram", she said that the project may have been delayed, but it is still on.

" 'Shantaram' was ready to go, but then there was a Hollywood writer's guild strike, so it got delayed. And then Johnny Depp who was supposed to play 'Shantaram' took on another project, " said Nair, who is currently working on a film called "The Reluctant Fundamentalist", based on Mohsin Hamid's book of the same name.

"The project ('Shantaram') is still a precious part of my heart. One day we will bring it out on the screen, " she added.
