For those who don’t know, Banita Sandhu, from Wales (UK), is set to make her
big Bollywood debut in Shoojit Sircar’s October. Varun, who was last seen in
Judwaa 2, introduced Banita has the leading lady of his film a couple of months
ago.
Talking about Banita, Shoojit had earlier told a leading daily, “Everybody loved Banita in a chewing gum commercial that I had
directed. It had almost 40 million hits. While I was shooting the ad film, Juhi
(Chaturvedi; writer) and I were also working on the script [for this film]. So,
one day, I clicked a picture of Banita and sent it to Juhi saying, ‘She has the
potential to fit into the character that we are looking at’.”

What made him choose a newcomer, when he could have easily worked with an
established actress? “It has never mattered to me if I am working with
established or non-established actors. The demands of the script is all that
matters. The script required a certain face, vulnerability and innocence, so we
did many auditions,” Shoojit had explained.
