Ever since the Miss Universe of 1994, Sushmita Sen announced her comeback with Aarya, fans cannot keep calm. So when the trailer of this Do or Die gritty drama was dropped, we couldn’t help but take notice of the fierce character that Sen is all set to essay.

But did you know that Sushmita Sen was not the first choice for the Ram Madhvani directorial? It was in fact yet another boss lady, Kajol who was approached for the part of Aarya. What’s more, is that Kajol had almost signed the project but eventually had to decile it owing to some “personal problems.”

Opening up about what went wrong with Kajol and how Sushmita Sen stepped in, a certain source has been quoted by Pinkvilla. The source has revealed, “When Ram Madhvani was planning this project – a remake of the 2010 gritty drama series Penoza, it was originally being made into a Hindi feature film. Kajol was his first choice and they were in advanced talks with the actress for the film. She had loved the concept and the storyline but had to step out last minute citing personal issues. That had also put Ram’s dream project under a bit of a scanner since it delayed the process a bit.”
