For her maiden film as a producer, 'Desi Magic', Ameesha Patel is leaving no stone unturned to make sure it makes maximum impact. The film is being made under the banner Ameesha Patel Productions, which the actress-producer helms along with partner Kuunal Goomer. She has a double role for the first time and her co-stars are Zayed Khan, Sahil Shroff, Randhir Kapoor, Lillete Dubey and Ravi Kishan. Shot in Europe, Punjab and Mumbai, the film is directed by Mehul Atha Says she, "I've been having sleepless nights working on this movie, but I would have it no other way. This is probably my toughest challenge post Gadar (2001). I play two diametrically opposite characters. We locked the script after a year-and-a-half." Of her dual role as a producer and an actor, she says, "The production house is Kuunal's brainchild. He coaxed me to set up a company with him and I agreed. He lets me be the actor and hog all the limelight, while he works on the nitty-gritties. Adds Kuunal, "It has been a very hectic, but fulfilling journey. When Ameesha and I decided to start a production house, our aim was to make good films. We have Amit Mehta, the writer of Don 2, on board for this film and DJ Aqeel makes his debut as music composer. Sanjay Gadhvi, who is a good friend of Ameesha's, has been roped in as the script doctor and he is overseeing the dialogue and the screenplay."
