Here’s some random coverage:
Also, a short blurb about the music and choreography in Ayesha:
Choreographer Terrence Lewis says, “I had a great time working on songs of Ayesha and the opening song ‘Girl Power’ showcases three girls having good time. Sonam along with her friend (Ira Dubey) grooms their small town friend (Amrita Puri) to match up the standards of big city.
How was it to choreograph Sonam and her girls gang? “Not just in the song but in real too it was all girl gang around while shooting. I was surrounded by pretty women, as apart from Sonam, Ira and Amrita, the seat of the director was also donned by a beautiful lady Rajshree Ojha who is making her debut with this film. As far as the song is concerned the mood is very light and cool as it’s a situational song so the dance is that of freestyle.”

Trak.in reports that Ayesha is forty percent shot:
“New Delhi, Oct 22 (IANS) Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor, who was in the capital for over a month to shoot for her upcoming venture ‘Ayesha’, says the film is 40 percent complete.
‘We are done with 40 percent of the shooting for ‘Ayesha’ and now we will resume the rest in Mumbai,’ Sonam told IANS here.
‘Ayesha’ has been shot across the capital as well as in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand.
Made under the banner of her father actor-producer Anil Kapoor, the movie is being produced by her sister Rhea.
Also starring Abhay Deol in the lead, ‘Ayesha’ is an adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel ‘Emma’ and is about the perils of misconstrued romance.”
Here’s an interesting interview with one of the stars of Ayesha, Abhay Deol (“Mr. Knightley”): “Call me casual”
“Abhay’s been shooting for Aisha – the film based on Jane Austen’s Emma in which he’s cast opposite Sonam Kapoor – in Delhi too. Is this his attempt to do offbeat stuff? “I don’t see my work as offbeat. It’s something I like to do and am comfortable with,” he said. But he does do offbeat stuff – like going off to the US for a welding course just after the success of Dev. D? “I did, and I also think it’s logical for me to take a break if I’ve shot three films back-to-back,” he answered.”
