00:05Do you want to talk about casting? Aishwarya Thakre, how do you feel?
00:10It was by chance that, you know, I saw Swaril.
00:16Right.
00:17It was on YouTube.
00:20It was on many monologues.
00:22Okay.
00:23It was on a school monologue.
00:25Monologues Bajpayee Ji.
00:28Which I had written.
00:30And then, different monologues, different screen presence.
00:37From there, I felt that there was something in this girl.
00:40In her eyes, there was a different intensity.
00:42A different...
00:48In one monologue, I didn't think that she is where she is.
00:53And I didn't know who she is.
00:55I didn't know that he is background.
00:58Yeah.
00:59Correct.
01:00And then I met him and I gave him the script and he told me then.
01:03Okay.
01:04And then I said, react to the script.
01:06He reacted to the script.
01:07And he said, what do you feel about it?
01:11And he said, he would love to play Bablul.
01:14Like, would he really get to... I didn't promise him the role.
01:17I said, he would have to work.
01:19Hmm.
01:20Hmm.
01:21I started to work.
01:22I also met his parents.
01:24I said, if he is doing this, then I wouldn't want him to do anything else.
01:28Because of the freshness, that goes away.
01:30Right.
01:31Plus, he is a city boy.
01:32Yes, a city boy.
01:33Plus, the freshness goes away.
01:34There is no expectation.
01:35You know, if you have done a film, then people like to watch you.
01:40So, I needed... I got into that zone.
01:46And then, he worked on it.
01:47And then, he worked on it.
01:48And then, I worked on Bablul.
01:50And then, we worked on Bablul.
01:51And then, we worked on Bablul.
01:52And then, we worked on it.
01:53And then, he worked on that.
01:58He got very happy.
01:59And that...
02:00And then, that's how he came together.
02:03So, his, I think, double role is being appreciated in the trailer.
02:07I think, you said that people don't get to know that he is the singer.
02:10Yes.
02:11If you watch the film, it will be better.
02:13It will be better.
02:14Interesting.
02:15I think he is composed also for the film.
02:17He has composed the song.
02:18He has composed the song.
02:19Yes.
02:20For the film.
02:21And he is also sung to song.
02:22Okay.
