Anushka takes Mehreen on board
A source close to the development said, “The makers were on the lookout for a face from Punjab for the role. When they found out that Mehreen was a noted model who also featured in a movie down South, they approached her straightaway. She took a liking to her part but took time to say yes. It’s a plum role and she is required to adjust her dates as her both Telugu signings will start shortly.”
