Sanjay Leela Bhansali is all set to launch veteran actress Poonam Dhillon and producer Ashok Thakeria's son Anmol Thakeria in his next production. The action-romance is titled Tuesdays and Fridays and is being directed by Taranveer Singh. Now we hear that Zoa Morani, who was last seen in Bhaag Johnny in 2015, has also joined the film's cast.
Apparently, the actress has been roped in to play an NRI in the upcoming film. A source from the sets revealed to a leading daily, "Zoa recently joined the cast and plays an NRI settled in London. The team has completed a month-long shoot in the Queen’s City and will kickstart the Mumbai schedule shortly. Zoa won’t be a part of it."
Interestingly, former Miss India Jhataleka Malhotra (2014 Winner), will also be debuting alongside Anmol. The report in the leading daily further suggested that the film has two other young actors as part of the cast; Anmol’s character is called Varun, while Jhataleka plays Sia. Reem Sheikh features as Tanya and Ibrahim Chaudhary plays Shawan. The film started rolling in August and the actors have been shooting at Pitch Stratford, an open-air theatre in London.
On a related note, the four actors have also shot for a song choreographed by Kruti Mahesh (Deewani Mastani of Bajirao Mastani fame) which is their introductory track in the film. The next schedule of the film will kick off this month when the team will commence shooting in Mumbai. Anmol had been prepping for the film for a year now, which included training in martial arts and dance.
Meanwhile, Tuesdays and Fridays had earlier grabbed headlines after Shahid Kapoor turned down the film and thus, the role eventually fell into Anmol's hands.
