Ameesha Patel who debuted in Kaho Na Pyaar Hai (2000) is now turning producer. Even in Hollywood, more and more actresses are turning to production.Julia Roberts, Penelope Cruz, Charlize Theron, Sandra Bullock, and Katherine Heigl to name a few. After acting for over a decade, the Patel girl is launching her production company — Ameesha Patel Productions along with her best friend Kuunal Goomer. The sexy and sassy single girl is hosting a glitzy party at a posh Juhu lounge tonight. The pink (her favourite colour) invites were sent out with a bottle of champagne to the who's who of the film industry. "It is a very special moment for me and I have called all my friends to raise a toast on the occasion," Ameesha said. She added that she had nurtured her dream to be an entrepreneur for 11 years.
The final production plans will be disclosed by her post the gala launch. We hear that she is already in the middle of hiring a team of promising and accomplished directors under her banner. The one question everyone is asking is if Ameesha would cast herself in her first production. She isn't telling for now.
Sushmita Sen was the first to venture this way. Although her dream production, a film on Jhansi Ki Rani Laxmibai couldn't take off from the planning stage, she paved the way for others.
The latest addition to the list is our girl Amisha Patel.
The actress has planned a big bash over the weekend for her friends and relatives wherein she will announce the launch of her production house, Amisha Patel Productions.
She, of course will not be doing this alone. Her friend Kunal who has been keeping her company at many social events including Shilpa Shetty's bash, Imran Khan's wedding reception and the New Year celebrations in Dubai, will be the partner.
According to the industry buss, the much-married businessman was all set t produce a film with Amisha in the lead. However, now, they have decided to open their own production house instead.
A source very close to Amisha told Mumbai Mirror, "Kunal's wife Shaalu is also very close to Amisha. The three of them often hangout together."
Explaining how Amisha turn producer, our source added, "Amisha has a lot of interesting content which she wants to convert into films.
