How did Rehan Khan come into picture?
I haven’t seen Rehan’s film either. He gave me DVD of his film just yesterday. The fact is that Rehan was cast because I had a role of a Muslim boy. I am not saying that I am biased towards a religion according to the role. Today you have boys who speak in the same particular type of westernized language. But here is a boy, who wears very contemporary clothes goes to Barista and Caf Coffee Day but he also talks about religion and has values that come from a Muslim background. This is something very tough to find. It always looks artificial when you make someone who doesn’t know things about it, to be religious in the picture. I think Rehan has all that qualities. I didn’t audition him. I didn’t see his stills. I didn’t even see his film. I just spoke to this guy for half an hour and I realized that this guy somewhere had his values still in store. That is something that I wanted for this role and I think it made my job simpler to cast someone like this. Are you more comfortable working
