Aishwarya had recently spoken about her upcoming projects.  She had revealed, “I’ve been approached for the remake of Raat Aur Din, which is a great opportunity and what’s funny is while filming Shabd, Sanju Sir (Sanjay Dutt) said he’d have loved for me to play the part, and I was very touched. We’re still working out the details. I’ve also been approached for a remake of Woh Kaun Thi."

Aishwarya is currently shooting for the movie Fanne Khan with co-stars Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao. The film will release in July this year. It is a musical drama and Aishwarya plays the role of a musical diva.

Kartik, who is enjoying the success of his Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, recently said he will try and do at least two films a year. The actor has done six films in a career spanning over seven years.

Kartik said: "Actually, I kept my frequency very low when it came to featuring in a movie. But from now, I will try to increase that frequency and do more films. It was conscious decision from my side. I think I am able to concentrate more when I do one film at one time but now onwards, I will try to do at least two films in a year."
