Aishwarya Rai's next is Fanney Khan

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has chosen director Rakeysh Om Prakash Mehra’s next titled Fanney Khan. The movie, produced by Kriarj Entertainment, will also have Anil Kapoor in it. The pair will be coming back together after a  gap of 17 years. They had earlier worked together in Humara Dil Aapke Paas Hai (2000) and Taal (1999).

Fanney Khan, a comedy musical, is the official remake of Everybody’s Famous!  directed in English and Dutch by Dominique Deruddere.

Meanwhile, Prernaa Arora of Kriarj Entertainment expressed her excitement of associating with Aishwarya. “Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is an icon by herself. Working with her will be a sincere privilege. Now that I got a role that I  could only imagine her portraying it, I did not want to let this opportunity go. It’s like a dream come true and I look forward to start work with her,” she said. The movie is likely to go on the floors by year end.
