A passionate storyteller, Mehra has put in years of efforts into developing the script of Fanney Khan.

He shares, "For me, the journey of Fanney Khan started nine years ago, when I saw the Belgian film, 'Everybody's Famous' (2000). Over the years we at ROMP pictures, especially Bharathi (his wife) and Atul, have nurtured and developed the script, as we believe that the story of Fanney Khan, which revolves around passion, parenting and friendship, is something that needs to be told to the masses."

Anil Kapoor, who makes his next outing as producer after the success of 'Veere Di Wedding' (2018) says, "I was instantly drawn to the story of Fanney Khan. As a producer, I am in a fortunate position to be able to lend my support to stories that deserve to be told, and I can't think of a better story than this that people will relate to."

Bhushan Kumar, who's a well known name in the music industry and also the producer of this film, was excited as soon as he heard the story. "It appealed to me at a personal level because it's a story of a a father helping his daughter achieve her dream, just the way I am fulfilling my father's passion of making great music and films. It has a universal appeal," he said in a statement. 

It is after 17 years Anil Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are coming together for a film. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan plays a singing sensation in the film while Rajkummar Rao plays her love-interest. 

Fanney Khan is all set to release on 3rd August 2018.
