When the sequel of Ashiqui was announced, the Bhatt camp was strict only on one thing, they wanted young and fresh faces for the movie. And in this light, they had even organized an online campaign to view the portfolio's of actors and actresses who wanted to open up with Bhatt's. But it seems that almost all failed and it has ended up with Shradha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapoor.
The movie Ashiqui in 1990 had stirred up the romantic thoughts of Indian audience to a great extend and when the sequel is directed by Mohit Suri, audience do have great expectations on the movie.
Both Shradha and Aditya did have a try at bollywood but haven't really worked out for their favor. Interestingly, Suri points out that despite being ‘failed actors’, the two suited best for his film.” Mohit says, “I chose Aditya and Shraddha, both failed actors. Their films may not have worked at the box office, but they are best suited for my film.”
Shraddha Kapoor, daughter of Shakti Kapoor has starred in Teen Patti and Luv Ka The End, while Aditya Roy Kapoor played supporting roles in films like Action Replayy and Guzaarish.
Now we wonder why Emraan was moved away from the project, he would have made an excellent romantic hero himself! When asked, Bhatts said: "Emraan can't be there in every film. It's not a middle age story. The film demanded young people, newcomers." He wittily adds saying, 'Emraan is a horrible guy. He doesn't buy me things he promises (winks)."
Keep your promises Emraan else you will miss great movies from uncle's!
