Anurag Basu Looks For a Heroine for Hrithik


Director Anurag Basu, who will be directing Hrithik Roshan in an action-romance, is looking for a new leading lady for his film. This will make it the actor's first female debutante co-star after Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, where he made his debit along with Amisha Patel seven years ago.


According to Basu, the theme is such that they need a fresh face. Only if they do not find a suitable debutante will they opt for an established actress. The film will be produced by Rakesh Roshan. The father and son duo apparently saw Metro and like the film a lot and decided to approach Basu to direct a film for them. Basu really shot to fame with his film, Gangster, which saw leading lady Kangana Ranaut making her debut. Basu concedes that he may not be so lucky a second time round in finding a new leading lady but remains hopeful. But he extremely happy working with Hrithik and Rakesh, who he says, are absolutely non-interfering. The added bonus for Basu is that he will also be working with music director Rajesh Roshan as well for this yet-untitled film. Basu is a great fan of the composer and is thrilled about this opportunity. The director who has not had any release since Metro, feels it is now time to get back to wielding the megaphone. The Hrithik starrer should hit the floors by the middle of this year. The director is also scripting a film for UTV., has for now decided to keep the sequel to Metro on the back-burner.
