Sanjana Sanghi has been finalised to star opposite actor Sushant Singh Rajput
in the Hindi adaptation of the 2014 hit Hollywood film "The Fault In Our Stars".
Presented and produced by Fox Star Studios, the shoot will begin by mid
2018. Casting director Mukesh Chhabra will make his debut as a director with
this film. Oscar winner A.R. Rahman is also on board to compose the music for
the romance drama.
"I met Sanjana first during the casting of
'Rockstar'. She was a young and dynamic girl with great energy. After a few
years she reconnected for a few ad casting jobs -- she came across as a mature
young lady and to my surprise she was a fabulous actor," Chhabra said in a
statement.
"I was instantly sure that I would love to make a film with
her one day. Once 'The Fault in Our Stars' script was ready, she fitted right
in, the perfect face. Well, I can't wait to create magic with this talented
girl," he added.
Rucha Pathak, Chief Creative Officer, Fox Star Studios,
said: "Mukesh called me out of the blue one day to meet her... and she had a
striking and yet innocent personality but what really caught my attention was
when Mukesh screen tested her.
"She nailed it in her audition and we
knew right away she was our leading lady. Looking forward to launching this
talented young lady in Mukesh's directorial debut."
"The Fault In Our
Stars" is based on John Green's bestselling novel. The Hollywood film features
Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort.
