After a long hiatus, Kiran Rao is back to directing movies. Her latest directorial, 바카라˜Laapataa Ladies바카라™ is set to release soon. In a latest interview, Kiran Rao revealed that Aamir Khan had also auditioned for Ravi Kishan바카라™s role. However, when Aamir and Kiran saw Ravi Kishan바카라™s audition, they knew he was a better fit for the role.

In a conversation with The Week, Kiran Rao revealed that Aamir Khan wanted to play Ravi Kishan바카라™s role. Aamir had loved the character and he wanted to play the part. The 바카라˜PK바카라™ actor also auditioned for the role. Kiran Rao revealed that Aamir gave a 바카라œreally good바카라 performance. However, when they saw Ravi Kishan바카라™s audition tape, they knew Aamir Khan had fallen short.

Kiran Rao said, 바카라œI feel he (Kishan) brings a complete surprise to this character because you don바카라™t know what to expect from him. When Aamir is in a role, he sort of sets expectations for his character. Aamir was very in on that decision that Ravi can do this better and perhaps, 바카라˜I wouldn바카라™t do full justice to it.'바카라

바카라˜Laapataa Ladies바카라™ has a slew of fresh faces on board. Kiran Rao revealed that casting fresh faces was a 바카라œdeliberate바카라 choice. She added, 바카라œIt was kind of deliberate. I was really lucky because Aamir was fully supportive of the idea, he also felt strongly that the story needed to be rooted and authentic, with faces that were fresh enough to be very believable in this rural setting and also not to raise expectation of any kind.바카라

Starring Nitanshi Goel, Pratibha Ranta, Sparsh Shrivastava, Chhaya Kadam, and Ravi Kishan, 바카라˜Laapataa Ladies바카라™ revolves around a man who had his newlywed wife swapped on a train. The movie is set to release on March 1.
