Aisha is set in the upper class society of Delhi and it
is a modern day adaption of the British novel, Emma by
Jane Austen. The central character - Aisha is a girl
with a simple diktat - everyone's business is her
business. Arju is a boy with even a simpler set of
beliefs - Aisha should mind her own business.
Caught in the Delhi upper class world with its own set
of social rules, Aisha navigates her world with a great
sense of style and even greater optimism.
Pinky Bose (Ira Dubey) Aisha's best friend comes from a
filthy rich background. She knows she isn't very
intelligent or pretty, so user her eccentric fashion
sense to get attention. But she isn't ditsy. She has a
strong head on her shoulders and knows that in order to
survive in this world, you have to carve your own path.
Shefali Thakur (Amrita Puri) is a young, naive,
gullible, behenji from the back of beyond Bahadurgarh,
Haryana. An orphan from a middle class family, she has
been brought into the big city for the sole purpose of
being married off by her uncle and aunt. She looks up to
Aisha and takes her word as the law. She is insecure and
under-confident and needs someone to just tell her she
is perfectly fine. But no one does that and she just
continues being Aisha's shadow.
Arjun constantly reprimands Aisha and points out all her
faults but all he really wants to do is hold her and
never let her go.

Welcome to Aisha's fabulous world where playig cupid is as
easy as 123... if only that Arjun would stay out of her
way!
Aisha’s sister Aalia is married to Karan Burman. Karan has
a young brother Arjun. So apna Arjun Burman (Abhay Deol)
is Aalia's brother-in-law. He is intelligent, articulate,
mature and in essence, the perfect Jane Austen hero with
no faults, but the desire to achieve perfection in all
aspects of his life.
He has a strict moral code that he lives his life by. An
investment banker by profession, and a Whatron alumni,
Arjun has seen the world and dated various women. But he
wants only one - Aisha - if only she would realize her own
potential and see herself the way he sees her.
Caught in Aisha’s web are her best friend Pinky, the small
town girl Shefali, the west Delhi boy Randhir and the hunk
Dhruv. Aisha will make sure everyone dances to her tune.
And all Arjun wants to do is disentangle that web and get
Aisha out of an impending sticky mess.
The film belongs to Anil Kapoor’s sweet daughter Sonam
Kapoor. She is stylish, fun and attractive. Abhay Deol is
the ideal guy for her in the story. Ira Dubey and Amrita
Puri are so natural, and the trio of Sonam, Ira and Amrita
lights up the screen with mischief and fun.
Cyrus Sahukar as Randhir Gambhir is the typical Punjabi
wimpy mamma's boy who falls in and out of love every six
months. Arunoday Singh as Dhruv is the charming, gorgeous
man whom every girl would instantly have a huge crust on.
From the start itself, Aisha is a cheerful chick flick
with fun and style all throughout. Girls just wanna have
fun…
Aisha is a sweet and funny love story with excellent
performances.
