  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,January 27 2014]

Having worked as a stylist on YRF's ‘Band Baaja Baarat’ and ‘Ladies v/s Ricky Bhel’, B-Town's newbie Ayesha Khanna was discovered by actress and producer Shilpa Shetty Kundra who encouraged her to audition for her home production ‘Dishkiyaoon’. Ayesha who met with the makers as the stylist of the film had everyone floored when she auditioned for 2 scenes after much coaxing - Ever since there was no looking back.

And playing god-mother to T, Shilpa left no stones unturned in making her newest discovery into a perfect heroine.

Confirming the news said Shilpa, I’ve trained her, been around for her photo sessions and whenever she shot for the film. Whatever I’ve learned through my career, I’ve passed it on to her. We’ve given her a complete makeover. Even though she’s a stylist herself, I’ve helped her with the costumes.

Added Ayesha, I'm extremely grateful to Shilpa, I never thought I could do it but she encouraged me all the way. She was also very protective of me during the film's shoot and would keep encouraging me.

Eros International & ESM's ‘Dishkiyaoon’ directed by Sanamjit Talwar starring Harman Baweja, Sunny Deol and Ayesha Khanna is scheduled to release March 28 2014.
