With the action romantic comedy Nikamma just around the corner, the excitement amongst Shilpa’s fans is palpable! To add to all the anticipation, Shilpa has also announced that the film is slated to release on 17th June.

Shilpa Shetty will be leading Nikamma on her shoulders in the skin of Avni. Speaking about the film, she said, “I am glad our film ‘Nikamma’ has a release date set and I cannot wait for audiences to see me in another avatar. As an actress, it is great to be back in the theatres after a hiatus of 15 years. It’s the first film I said yes to after my sabbatical and I was convinced by Sabbir’s grasp on the craft and the unusual and exciting part he had to offer. Avni has been one of my most challenging roles yet, but also a part I enjoyed playing to the hilt. Can’t wait for people to enjoy Nikamma in the theatres.”

The film, directed by Sabbir Khan, is co-produced by Sony Pictures and Shabbir Khan Films and will also star Abhimanyu Dassani, Shirley Setia, Sunil Grover, Naren Kumar and Deepraj Rana. Nikamma will hit the theatres on 17th June in a theatre near you!
