Throwback: Not Amrita Rao, but another actress was to play Sanju

Amrita Rao as Sanju

Even though she played her heart out as Sanju in 'Main Hoon Na', did you know Amrita Rao was never the first choice for the film?

Ayesha Takia in Main Hoon Na

In an interview with Rajeev Masand's audio show, Farah Khan once revealed that she had selected Ayesha Takia for the role of Sanju.

What went wrong?

According to Farah, Ayesha Takia has said yes to the role but she never returned for her dress trials once she went shooting for 'Socha Na Tha'

Zayed Khan

Like Amrita Rao, Zayed Khan was also not the first choice for the role of Lucky in the film. In fact, Farah was initially keen on signing Hrithik Roshan.

Perfect Casting

Despite the setbacks, Farah chose the perfect cast for her film where everyone delivered a once-in-a-lifetime performance.
