Anoushka Shankar breaking free

With an undoubted musical talent running in her blood, Anoushka Shankar, sitar maestro Ravi Shankar’s daughter, is planning to display her acting talents as well.

Planning to make her acting debut in a bilingual film, ‘Breaking Free’, Anosuhka will have our serial kisser Emraan Hashmi as her co-star. The film will be directed by the documentary filmmaker Ahsan Hyder.

Talking about Anoushka as his choice, Hyder reveals, “I wanted someone like Anoushka for the role as the film needs to travel to New Zealand, New York and New Delhi. Anoushka was perfect for the role because she has a musical background and has an accent which goes well with the character.”

Anoushka, was keen on doing the movie next month, but her co-star Emraan Hashmi is busy with ‘Raaz-2’ and he could not allocate dates for his new project.
