Waiting is a 2015 Indian comedy-drama film directed by Anu Menon, released in India on 27 May 2016. Produced by Priti Gupta of Ishka Films and Manish Mundra of Drishyam Films, the film was co-written by Menon and James Ruzicka. It stars Naseeruddin Shah and Kalki Koechlin (pictured) in lead roles, supported by Rajat Kapoor, Suhasini Maniratnam, Arjun Mathur, Ratnabali Bhattacharjee and Rajeev Ravindranathan. Waiting focuses on the relationship between two people from different walks of life who befriend each other in a hospital while taking care of their respective comatose spouses.

The film had its world premiere at the Dubai International Film Festival in December 2015, and was also screened at the closing gala of the London Asian Film Festival, where Menon won the Best Director Award. Waiting was well-received by critics, with particular praise for the performances of Koechlin and Shah, and for Menon's direction.
