Read
up!
In
a
recent
chat
show,
while
in
conversation
with
Ranveer
Singh,
Karan
Johar
spoke
about
his
film
Takht
and
how
he
felt
that
Ranveer
had
to
be
in
it.
"When
I
thought
of
this
film,
I
thought
Ranveer
Singh
has
to
be
in
this
film.
That
was
my
decision.
I
remember
the
narration.
There
would
be
a
huge
part
in
my
heart
which
would've
been
crushed
if
for
some
reason
you
would've
declined
the
offer
because
I
had
you
in
mind
for
Takht
always.
You
were
the
first
person
who
heard
it.
Nobody
in
my
family
knew
this
film
was
ready,"
he
said.
Karan
also
said
that
he
was
anxious
about
having
Ranveer
in
the
project.
Ranveer
added
to
this
and
said,
"I
just
wanna
tell
people
that
Karan
called
me
over
and
when
he
started
narrating
the
film
himself,
suddenly
I
asked
myself
who
is
this
person?
I
don't
know
this
person!
His
eyes
were
red,
the
body
was
flushed,
hands
were
trembling
and
there
was
an
aura
around
him.
It
was
almost
like
he
was
tripping."
Ranveer
will
reportedly
be
essaying
the
role
of
Dara
Shikoh,
Shah
Jahan's
eldest
son,
and
his
brother,
Aurangzeb
will
be
played
by
Vicky
Kaushal.
Shah
Jahan's
daughter,
Jahanara
Begum
will
reportedly
be
played
by
Kareena
Kapoor.
Alia
Bhatt
will
be
playing
the
role
of
Ranveer's
wife,
Begum
Nadira
Banu,
and
Janhvi
Kapoor
is
said
to
be
a
slave
girl
in
the
film.
Sounds
fantastic,
doesn't
it?
