While Rajeev Khandelwal is making waves these days for his film Aamir , his costar from the hit television series Kahin Toh Hoga , Aamna Shariff isn't far behind and is following Rajeev's footsteps. With Rajeev making his Bollywood debut in June, Aamna will follow it up in August. And like Rajeev, Aamna too claims to have quit television to follow her dreams of doing films.
For the uninitiated, Aamna Shariff is a big name on the Indian television and had become hugely popular with her show Kahin Toh Hoga from the Balaji banner. The girl who was said to be the Madhuri Dixit of the small screen for her smile and looks, will foray into Bollywood with a film titled Aloo Chaat . She has been paired opposite Aftab Shivdasani in the film directed by Robby Grewal ( Samay, MP3 ).
All the outfits that Aamna wore in her television show were huge hits with the audiences and became quite a trend in the market. With her good looks and acting abilities, it was but obvious that Aamna was eyeing Bollywood for quite some time now. And though she was bombarded with film offers; she was waiting for that one right project.
The opportunity came with Aloo Chaat from the banner of Maverick Productions headed by actor-producer Anuj Saxena. Says Anuj, "The on-screen chemistry between Aftab and Aamana is simply superb and has to be seen to be believed. They suit the roles perfectly." Aloo Chaat is co-produced by Mirchi Movies. The film's principle shooting has been complete and is currently in the post-production stage.
Another person who is quite excited about the project is actor Aftab Shivdasani. "This is my solo hero project after a long time and I am looking forward to it. Also with the positive response to my other film De Taali , I only expect things to get better".
However Aamna wasn't available for comment. The girl is not allowed to speak to the media until the film releases.
