| |||||
Friday, 10th April 2015, 3:58 PM IST Emraan Hashmi will be seen playing the role of Mohammed Azharuddin on screen. The movie will be produced by Ekta Kapoor and earlier Sangeeta Bijlani’s role was offered to Kareena Kapoor Khan, but the actress rejected the offer. However, after approaching a few actresses, the makers have decided to launch a new girl with the film for which they will be having a nationwide hunt. A source said, "After conversations with several leading ladies led to no confirmation, the studio decided against casting an established name. They even looked at some Southern actresses, but none fitted the bill." Tanveer Bookwala, Chief Creative Officer of Balaji Motion Pictures, said, "We are gearing up for the biggest nationwide hunt to find Bijlani. A new girl will debut with the Azhar biopic." When he was asked why no actresses agreed to do the role, he said, "It's a controversial role which requires a lot of gumption to carry off. We're sure to find one in the coming month as the film goes on floors in May."
