Pakistani actress Mahira Khan enjoys fairly the recognition in India and her fan following elevated after she made her Bollywood debut with none aside from Shah Rukh Khan in his movie Raees. However do you know that SRK’s mother-in-law was the one who advised Mahira’s identify for the movie? The director of the movie Rahul Dholakia just lately opened up in regards to the casting means of the movie and stated that it’s uncommon to discover a “30-something heroine in India with good Hindi.”
He then defined that there are only a few actresses in India who’re of their 30s with good Hindi and an innocence. He continued, “There was Deepika, Kareena, and Anushka. We had these three or 4 heroines who met the standards. However now, the issue with them was that they’re too costly and the function is simply too small for them. Then we went by way of a whole listing which included Sonam and Katrina. On the finish of the day, we realised this wasn’t working for us. They have been not likely becoming the function. Shah Rukh Khan can not romance an Alia Bhatt!”
Dholakia then revealed that it was Gauri Khan’s mom who advised Mahira’s identify. Persevering with the story, he stated, “I feel each Gauri Khan’s mom and my mom had seen Mahira in some Pakistani tv present. They each stated: ‘Yeh ladki achi hai‘. Honey Trehan was casting for us. I known as him up and requested if he knew Mahira. He stated, ‘She is right here in Mumbai for some promotional work.’ He then stated, ‘I’ll carry her tomorrow, you may audition her for the function.’ We then auditioned her on the Excel workplace. After the audition, I declared, ‘I’ve discovered my Aasiya.”
