Fanney Khan to take up body shaming in big way: Producer
New Delhi Aug 24 (IANS) Anil Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan-starrer "Fanney Khan" will take up the cause of body shaming -- which has become rampant across the world -- in a huge way says producer Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra.
" Fanney Khan is a beautiful father and daughter story. We have a new girl playing a 16-year-old daughter. It picks up the cause of a young girl in a big way. And you will see the film in many layers... It s about her aspirations of getting popular.
"At the same time it s about the whole body shaming of a girl -- most of the girls not just in India but around the world go through... The male gaze thing or female gaze also... (which is) very scary " Mehra told IANS over phone from Mumbai.
To be directed by Atul Manjrekar the film has music by Amit Trivedi and lyrics by Irshad Kamil.
A first look into the film -- as shared by Anil -- earlier this year saw him dressed dressed in a blingy golden jacket singing his heart way as a spotlight shone on him.
According to latest reports R. Madhavan will also be a part of the project which is also backed by KriArj Entertainment and
T-Series.
