With Ayesha Takia all set to tie the knot with long time beau Farhan Azmi, there is a strong buzz in the industry circles that she will not sign any new films thereafter and bow out of the film industry. An industry source revealed, “Ayesha has three major films on hand presently, the Salman Khan starrer Wanted Dead And Alive which is almost complete and Revathy Kumar’s Phir Tum Mile starring R. Madhavan and Jaya Bachchan.
Her Akshay Kumar starrer Eight By Ten is ready for a April release. That apart she is playing a cameo role in Ahmed Khan’s Paathshala and giving her voice for animated feature Ab Dilli Door Nahin. Despite her marriage drawing closer she just recently signed the Madhavan starrer, the reason being she wanted to bid a goodbye with a strong woman oriented subject where she had a substantial role to play.
Also what got her more excited about the project was that the film is to be shot in a one stop schedule in April. Now though more offers are continuing to pour in for her, she is in no mood to sign any more projects. In her many interviews Ayesha had earlier expressed her wish to not continue acting post marriage. So since now she has completely stopped signing any more projects its being understood that she is finally bidding a goodbye to the industry.”
Her boyfriend Farhan is the son of controversial leader of Samajwadi Party, Abu Asim Azmi. He runs his own hotel business and his two restaurants – Café Basilico and Koyla are quiet famous eateries in Mumbai. Though Ayesha didn’t enjoy many successes with her films, her roles in Socha Na Tha, Dor and Yun Hota To Kya Hota were widely appreciated.
