Popular Indian director and filmmaker Imtiaz Ali lately revealed that Bollywood star Alia Bhatt was not the first choice for one of his hit movies ‘Highway’ , instead it was another top star Aishwarya Rai in his mind for the film as he was looking forward for a mature actress.
Imtiaz recently appeared on Mid-Day's Sit With Hitlist series and recalled when he was casting for Highway. The filmmaker shared that he wanted to cast a more mature woman in the film. He mentioned Aishwarya Rai and said she could have been a great choice without makeup. However, he never approached her. Imtiaz was quoted as saying: "I always wanted to cast a slightly elder, like a woman of at least 30.
In the same conversation, Imtiaz shared that he went to the screening of Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana in 2012 while preparing for Highway. At the screening, he met Alia Bhatt, who was relatively young then. Although her debut film, Student Of The Year, was released a month before, he hadn't seen it. So, he didn't know about Alia's acting potential.
In a previous conversation with Mukesh Chhabra on Mashable India, Imtiaz shared that even his film unit was not convinced whether Alia could play the part. However, he gave Alia the script for a film and some time to read it. Later, he asked her to narrate the story in her way to the team. Ultimately, everyone was convinced she was the right person for the role. He said: "Alia was a very unexpected actor for Highway and the unit was not convinced about how she would do this role.
