It's
a
rare
combination

a
performer

a

at

time
has
great
acting
abilities.
Deepika
is
one
of
them," Bhardwaj

am
more
excited
for
my
friend
Honey
Trehan
who
has
been
with
me
for
last
20
years
and
he
is
very
lucky
that
in
his
first
film
itself,
he
has
got
such
fabulous
cast.
I
am
so
happy
and
excited
to
produce
this
film.
The
