Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's next project, Fanne Khan is one of the most awaited films of the year. The film stars Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao. The film was supposed to clash with Race 3 on June 15, 2018. However, the film has been delayed and will now release in August.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is yet to shoot for a special song for the film. The film was earlier going to release in July 2018, but has been delayed yet again. There was a dispute with the producer with regards to the payment, post which Bhushan Kumar took over the film. He has now taken over the film and will be fulfilling principal production duties. Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra will be co-producing the film.
The budget has now been revised and the cast has been requested to take pay cuts. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been requested by the makers to take a pay-cut, an insider revealed to DNA. A few key scenes are also left to be filmed. Rajkummar Rao and Anil Kapoor too, may be requested to change their fees owing to the revision of the budget of the film.
Aishwarya will be seen in the role of a singer. The film deals with the issue of body shaming and Aishwarya had said in an interview to Hindustan Times that she believes in the film's message and hence agreed to be a part of the film, even when she is not the fulcrum of the film but just a chapter.
Fanne Khan is a remake of a Dutch film titled Everybody's Famous.
