Anya Singh

His last directorial venture ‘Daawat-e-Ishq’ was a dud at the box office. However, writer-director Habib Faisal is now back with another flick on his mind, which is to be produced by Yash Raj Films.

The banner is set to launch yet another fresh couple with the untitled project. Delhi-based Anya Singh has been roped in for the same. Anya has also signed a three-film deal with YRF.

Shanoo Sharma, casting director at YRF, stated how she has been already pushed by Aditya Chopra to find new faces and how they ended up finding Ayna as a result of their extensive hunt from Delhi, Chandigarh and other cities.

“A year later, I was sitting at a coffee shop and she walked in after workout to grab a cuppa. We discussed everything she had been up to in the past year. That very day, I sent her to audition for the part and two rounds later, she was selected. She is the kind of girl I would chat with at a pub, if I bumped into her,” Shanoo told a leading daily.

Aadar Jain, who happens to be Ranbir Kapoor’s cousin brother, will also kick-start his Bollywood career with this one. Before him, Ali Zafar’s younger brother Danyal Zafar was signed for the same. However, following the ban on Pakistani artistes, the makers had to drop him.

They’re looking for the next Ranveer Singh-Anushka Sharma, says Shanoo. Let us just wait and see Aadar-Anya enchant us enough!
