will
be
part
of
Once

Time

Mumbaai
2.
It's
a
great
role.
With
the
film
it
feels
like
I'm
coming
home
since
Shobha
Kapoor
has
been
Goldie's
very
close
family
friend.
Also,
Ekta
Kapoor
is
a
creative
genius
and
has
an
amazing
story
sense
so
I
trust
her
judgement
on
this.
I
have
worked
with
Milan
before...so
its
very
comfortable
space." In

Upon
A
Time
In

of

am
thrilled
to
add
another
twist
to
the
casting
of
Once

Sonali
is
not

gorgeous
