Never mind the mixed response to its recent release "Paheli", the production and distribution house Ashtavinayak Cine Vision has a promising year ahead, says its vice president Rupen Amlani.

To start with, the company is gearing up for its forthcoming release "Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya", which it is co-producing with Sohail Khan Productions. The film is being released with a record number of approximately 600 prints all over India.

"It is a major release for us. This is the second time we are releasing a David Dhawan film after 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi'. The song 'Just chill' is already a rage among youngsters," Amlani said.

Then there's the much-anticipated multi-starrer "Dus" lined up for release in which Ashtavinayak has distribution stakes.

Meanwhile, the company has signed Salman Khan for a film to be directed by Priyadarshan. This will be Priyadarshan's second film with the banner, apart from the one he is doing with Akshay Kumar.
