The first look of actor Esha Deol Takhtani's Ek Duaa directed by Ram Kamal Mukherjee is out. Apart from playing the central character in the film, the actor has also turned producer with the film that packs a subtle yet strong punch about a women related cause. Talking about it, Esha who is excited about donning a new hat and the greasepaint once again, says, "I wanted to do a film that not just entertains but also informs and inspires change. When I heard the concept of 'Ek Duaa', it truly touched me, and more so as a mother of two girls. So, I decided to extend my association with it as a producer rather than just being an actor."

"It is heartening to see how the number of women behind the scenes have increased not just in count but in visibility too in the industry, and I am happy to join the bandwagon," added the actor, who is looking forward to taking on more projects. The trailer of the film was released on Voot Select's YouTube channel.

In an earlier interview, Esha Deol talking about turning producer said, "Over the past few years, I have been busy taking care of my two daughters, who are truly a blessing for me. I always wanted to come back to films, but I wanted to do it with something special. Now that they have grown up a bit and some very interesting projects are being offered to me, I thought it was the right time for me to face the camera once again. I wanted to do a film that not just entertains but also informs and inspires change. When I heard the concept of 'Ek Duaa', it truly touched me, and more so as a mother of two girls. So, I decided to extend my association with it as a producer rather than just being an actor."

Ek Duaa co-produced by Venky's and Assorted Motion Pictures, premiers on Voot Select on 26th July.
