Aishwarya Rai’s glamorous look for her upcoming movie “Fanney Khan” instantly went viral on the Internet three days ago.
The 44-year old actress is busy shooting her upcoming movie these days where she plays a successful singer. The movie is expected to release on April 13th, 2018.
‘Fanney Khan’ also features Anil Kapoor and Rajkumar Rao in the leading roles. Atul Manjrekar makes his directorial debut for this film. The movie is an Indian remake of the Dutch film ‘Everybody’s Famous.’ Aishwarya joins her father-in-law’s singing career in movies by making her own singing debut in this feature film.
The movie addresses the important issue of body shaming, which has become a heated topic of discussion in Pakistan in the past few years.
The movie is about a struggling singer Fanney Khan, played by Anil Kapoor, who wants his daughter to make it big in the music industry. Aishwarya Rai is a well established and popular singer, who is kidnapped by Anil so that she can meet his daughter, who is her fan. The movie shows that his daughter is able to achieve her dream to become a great singer, but has to tackle problems like obesity, that prevent her from popularity as a female singer.

Sources say Rai is given more importance in the script than the actress from the original version, Thekla Reuten.
The actress refrained from commenting on her enhanced role in the movie. However, she elaborated on her work plans and arrangements besides her motherly duty.
“I was very sure that whenever I decided to work after my daughter’s birth, it would have to be only when I can concentrate fully on my work. I didn’t want to be distracted or divided. It’s always a hundred percent of me in whatever I do.”
The actress has become picky in her roles with time and has often said that she prefers quality over quantity while picking roles for movies, since her marriage.
