We think Ayesha Takia is absolutely adorable and humble as a person and quite a fine actress indeed with films like Dor and Socha Na Tha in her kitty. She will be seen in Paathshala this week. We think she could have done much better than she has and point out some of her mistakes.

Ayesha Takia is a rare actor who can at once play the girl-next-door and a super-hot item lass. Deceptively sexy, Takia succeeded in infusing life, with equal verve, to both the deglamourised character in Nagesh Kukunoor’s ‘Dor’ and that of the “shahari pataka” in Prabhu Deva’s ‘Wanted’. Come this Friday, and Ayesha would again be seen on screens with ‘Paathshaala’.

This Arian gal is bubby, vivacious and a talent house waiting to shine in her light. Ayesha Takia, who started her career at a tender age of four where she became popular with the “I am Complan girl” campaign, has only grown strength to strength with each of her film.

She proved her mettle in Dor which is probably one of her best film till date.

Ayesha Takia has been basking in the glory of Wanted, in which she starred opposite Salman Khan. However, the actress is not keen on more success in Bollywood. Yes, after having married hotelier Farhan Azmi last year, the actress decided to call it quits where acting is concerned.

On the other hand, Ayesha is all set to take a new avatar. She will be joining her husband in expanding the hotel business, sources say. If this is true, then Ayesha’s last film would be Paathshala.

If original casting choice for ‘Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai’ would have remained intact then Ayesha Takia would have played the central protagonist in this Milap Zaveri directed film and Jacqueline Fernandez a.k.a. would have been the second lead.

However, as luck would have it, Jackie ended up finding herself playing the main lead while Sonal Sehgal was roped in for the second lead.

Ayesha Takia is now associated with a message-oriented film, titled Paathshala. The film is a take on the poverty in Indian education system, that treats the child/student, rather mindlessly.

Ayesha will share screenspace with the likes of Nana Patekar, Suniel Shetty and others. However, it is Shahid Kapoor whom she will romance.

The film will have loads of comedy and romance, too. Which explains the presence of Shahi and Ayesha in the movie.

Directed by Milind Ukey, it has been under production for some months now.
