This actor was the first choice to play Abhay Deol’s role in ‘Happy Bhag Jayegi’

Abhay Deol is all set to make his big screen comeback with ‘Happy Bhag Jayegi’ after two years. But, he was not the original choice for the movie. Well, the first choice for the film was Fawad Khan.

The co-producer of the film, Krishika Lulla, said, “We were contemplating it, but it was long back. Yes, we did think of him but at that time Fawad was doing something else and his dates were not there.”

Talking about Abhay she said, “He is very choosy about his projects. It’s the content that got Abhay and Diana Penty together for the film and we have Pakistani actors also. It was a good experience.”

Abhay will be seen as a Pakistani guy in the film which releases on August 19.
