Ali Fazal said,”It is a big step for me in my career that I am working with Tigmanshu Sir and the entire team. I am very excited as a lot of new things will be happening for the first time for all of us. I am working with Shraddha in her first Bollywood film. It feels very weird to be shooting in Lucknow. I’ve lived here, known these gulies, mohallas all my life, and never thought I will be shooting here. So, it feels good.”
Shraddha, who has earlier worked in the southern film industry, is excited about breaking new ground. “I come from the south and I don’t know the way things work here but I think it is going to be great. I am very happy and proud to be working with some amazing names. I couldn’t have had a better start to my Bollywood career,” she said.
Milan Talkies also features Ashutosh Rana, Sanjay Mishra, Yashpal Sharma and Sikander Kher.
