Yash Raj Films will be launching two new faces, Aadar Jain and Anya Singh. Aadar is the grandson of the late Raj Kapoor, while Anya is from Delhi.
The two debutants will be launched by Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma at an event and are reportedly doing a film under director Habib Faisal.
The casting director of Yash Raj Films, Shanoo Sharma, said “Adi (Aditya Chopra) always pushes me to go out and find new talent. When casting for this film, we were trying to get girls from Delhi, Chandigarh and other cities. Anya was the result of the hunt to find the next Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma. We wanted someone to come out of nowhere, lead regular lives and conquer the industry. Anya filled that spot for me. She came out of nowhere and landed a three-film deal with YRF”
“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 added.
The official handle of Yash Raj Films put out a series of tweets to introduce the young actors.
The first one with Aadar’s photo reads “My grandfather is a legend. I am just an aspiring actor.”
Another one has the words “Kapoor is not just my surname but films run in my blood”
One more “On the field, everyone loved my game. In Films, I hope they enjoy my act”
