Mumbai, March 16: Not many will be aware that LAHORE director Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan’s first choice for the role of the kick boxing coach, Farouque Shaikh, had almost turned down the film, due to an interesting confusion.
It took Sanjay almost nine months to get in touch with the over choosy Farooque, who in real life is a very busy man due to his social activities such as his involvement with UNO etc. Finally, when he did submit the script to the actor, who loved it but more or less turned down the role due to some confusion about which role he was being offered.
