This is Ajay's second official directoral effort, after directing U Me Aur Hum and allegedly ghost-directing Raju Chacha (officially credited to his brother Anil), both starring himself and Kajol. It is an "international action thriller", which is the trendy new thing for Bollywood films to be after Ek Tha Tiger and Bang Bang, and is reputed to have a predominantly foreign supporting cast. U Me Aur Hum struck me as a well-acted and visually interesting but not very coherent character drama, so it's hard to get a feel for how Shivaay will turn out based on that. Ajay's action credentials are pretty good though-he made action melodramas all through the 90s, and his father was IMO one of the best action choreographers of the late 70s/early 80s.
Sayessha who? You might be asking. She's the daughter of a minor 90s actress named Shaheen who in turn is the niece of Dilip Kumar's wife Saira Banu. Officially, she's seventeen, might be eighteen by the time they start filming. She looks a bit like a cross between a very young Karisma Kapoor and a blander edition of the late Jiah Khan. I'm guessing she was picked either because of her family ties or because she wasn't in a position to ask for a lot of money. (I think there's a refusal among the people who finance these very male-centric movies to pay the A-list heroines their going rate, and it's probably a bigger factor in bringing about these awkward May-October romance tracks involving very young, inexperienced actresses than most people admit.)
Edited to say: Film is releasing 10/28/2016, for the Diwali season.

No she's not. She's an English caucasian girl named Abigail Eames casted to act as Ajay's daughter in the movie.
