Meanwhile, Shraddha hopes that her real-life rapport with Siddhanth also reflects on the big screen. "I am very excited and nervous because I've been thinking if I have to do a scene with him, I've to forget that he is my bhaiya. He is the character in the film who is also my brother. But ultimately I think it'll help that we are brothers and sisters. I hope that bond translates on screen," she told news agency PTI.
Shraddha and her bother Siddhanth will share screen space with 3 Idiots star Sharman Joshi and also New York-based Indian actor Ankur Bhatia in the biopic. Ankur has been cast to play the role of Haseena's husband.
