Anil Kapoor: It’ll be interesting to work with Aishwarya Rai again

Anil Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are teaming once again after a gap of 17 years for the film ‘Fanney Khan’. Anil will be playing the titular role in the Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s directorial and the actor says that it will be interesting to work with Aishwarya again.

While talking to a leading daily, he said, “‘Fanney Khan’ is an exciting journey for me. I have always admired Aishwarya’s craft and it’ll be interesting to work with her again, after so long. This is also my first project with KriArj Entertainment. I am happy to join hands with such creative minds, who know the pulse of the audience. They’re talking about all the right things in the best of ways and the kind of cinema they make is exemplary of the fact that one doesn’t have to make a big movie to make a movie big.”

“T-Series is partnering with us, which means that our film will feature some fantastic music. What makes this partnership even more significant is the fact that music plays an important role in the story, which revolves around the life of an aspiring musician,” the actor added.

Talking about collaborating with Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s company, ROMP Pictures, Anil said, “All their productions have an innate sense of honesty, vulnerability and rawness that the audience can relate to. The same ethos will reflect in this film. Perhaps the most fun and gratifying part of the film is developing Fanney Khan’s character. He is lovably flawed and celebrates the extraordinary in the ordinary even as his life goes through bizarre twists and turns.”

Well, we simply can’t wait to watch Anil and Aishwarya on the big screen again. (Also Read: After Richa Chadha, now Anil Kapoor applauds the women’s cricket team of India)
