Lara Dutta, who makes her debut as a producer along with husband Mahesh Bhupathi for 'Chalo Dilli', says the tennis star is very 'filmi' and has an eye for cinema.

"Mahesh may look very sports oriented but he is very filmi. He has a very good sense of cinema. He watches movies from the point of view of an audience, thinking mera paisa vasool ho raha hai ki nahi( whether I am getting my movie tickets's worth in entertainment or not)," Lara told.

'Chalo Dilli' is produced by Eros International in association with Big Daddy Productions of Lara's tennis ace husband Mahesh and 'Bheegi Basanti' productions.

"Big Daddy is much older than Bheegi Basanti Entertainment, they have already done television production but of course this is there first feature film. For this film I was involved creatively and Mahesh was looking into the business angle. So we had a nice balance," Lara said.

Directed by Shashant Shah of 'Dasvidaniya' fame, the film starring Lara and Vinay Pathak, is a journey of two people, Lara and Vinay.

When asked whether actor friend Akshay Kumar is doing a cameo in the film, Lara said, "I don't know who is in a cameo role there can be anyone, it can be Mahesh Bhupathi or it can be Akshay."

She said it was her husband who conceived the item song 'Laila O Laila' which features Yana Gupta. Yana grooves to the remixed version of Zeenat Aman's popular number from 'Qurbani'. The film is all set to release on April 29
