Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra the Anjaana Anjaani!
Mumbai: Playing ‘Anjaana Anjaani’ They’ve never met formally nor do they know each other. That can be well understood why director Siddharth Anand signed Priyanka Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor as strangers in his next movie Anjaana Anjaani.
One of the main reasons for signing them is the fact that Ranbir and Priyanka have never met. Incidentally, the two have never met formally and barely know each other.
That’s why they are even more perfect for the roles. I wanted the surprise in their introductory scene to be genuine adds”, Siddharth Anand.
Director Siddharth Anand is totally laying emphasis on the fact that the duo avoid fully meeting each other to bring the originality in the movie.
That’s why we aren’t even having any workshops or rehearsals although Priyanka and Ranbir are the only two characters in the film.” That’s the other USP in the film. Priyanka and Ranbir are together on screen for the entire film with no other characters apart from incidental walk-on parts.
This great idea of making Anjana Anjani was given to him by his wife Mamta. Which at once clicked in his mind.
The film begins shooting on December 11 and ends on December 31. It’s also in sync sound. So Ranbir and Priyanka need to be fully prepared when the camera rolls. But I don’t want them to look rehearsed or like a couple who know one another. I’m hoping Ranbir and Priyanka won’t attend the same parties and come face-to-face before the shoot”, quips Siddharth.
