An
Ensemble
Cast
He
further
added,
"There
are
a
lot
of
other
actors
too
in
the
film.
It'll
have
an
ensemble
cast
since
there
are
44
parts
in
it.
There
will
be
a
lot
of
exciting
actors
but
Nawaz
and
Sanya
are
the
two
leads."
Ritesh
Always
Wanted
To
Work
With
Nawaz
When
asked
about
the
casting
process,
Ritesh
added,
"Nawaz
is
someone
I
worked
with
before,
and
I
wanted
to
work
with
him
again.
So,
he
has
always
been
attached
to
the
project
since
I
wrote
the
first
draft."
Why
Sanya
Was
Cast
Ritesh
revealed,
"As
for
the
girl's
part,
we
auditioned
a
lot
of
people,
and
that's
how
Sanya
was
selected,
through
an
intense
process
of
auditioning."
Will
Romance
Be
A
Challenge
For
Sanya?
In
one
of
her
earlier
interviews
when
Sanya
was
asked
if
she
is
open
to
exploring
new
genres,
she
had
replied,
"I
would
like
to
work
in
different
kinds
of
films,
play
different
types
of
characters,
and
explore
every
bit
of
it.
Any
genre
is
good,
as
long
as
I
have
not
tried
it
before.
But
romancing
on
screen,
I
feel,
would
be
challenging
for
me
as
I
am
not
so
romantic
in
[real]
life."
We
hear
that
the
film
is
slated
to
go
on
floors
later
this
year,
