Bollywood`s popular director, Nikhil Advani, has four releases coming up in 2015-2016. The talented director has a chock-a-block schedule starting with Hero` that features Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty, Katti Batti` featuring Imran Khan and Kangana Ranaut and Airlift` starring Akshay Kumar, Nimrat Kaur and Saurabh Shukla's upcoming film.

With Airlift, this is the first time the director will only be producing a film. Speaking about his busy year, Nikhil says, "Production is an art that my partners and I are committed to mastering. We're grateful to our backers, who are the sustainers of our work philosophies. Above all, we're determined to present our actors in the best way possible".

According to reports, Nikhil was so impressed by a one-page brief of director Raja Menon`s Airlift` that he is leaving no stone unturned for it. The film just begun shooting in Mumbai and also released the first look of the actors recently. Airlift` is produced under the Emmay Entertainment & Motion Pictures - his four-year-old production company along with T-Series and Cape of Good, in strategic partnership with Abundantia Entertainment.

Meanwhile amongst his other projects is Hero` which is in the final stages of post production and the shooting for Katti Batti` is on. Actor-director Saurabh Shukla`s unnamed film is in the scripting phase and will be set to go on floors later this year.

Here`s wishing the director a successful year ahead.
