Manmohan Desai's niece to star opposite Jackie Bhagnani 
By Bollywood Hungama News Network, February 12, 2008 - 18:12 IST
Vashu Bhagnani is all set to launch his son Jackie Bhagnani in his next venture titled Kal Kisne Dekha. Sharing screen space with Jackie will be Manmohan Desai's niece, Vaishali Desai. The film is expected to go on the floors by the end of March and will be directed by Vivek Sharma.
On asking why he zeroed down on Vaishali, Vashu says, “I was on a lookout for a fresh face. Looking into the past with films like Maine Pyaar Kiya, Pardes etc, I personally feel that romantic flicks do really well with a newcomer in the female lead. So, I was on a look out for a fresh face. After auditioning around 100 new faces, I came across this simple cute looking girl; Vaishali initially did not disclose her relation with Manmohan Desai.
He goes on to add, “Vaishali had won the title of Miss. India International in the Ponds Femina beauty contest and was first seen with SRK in a Sun Feast commercial, hence she fits the bill perfectly. Also, we are in talks with Nana Patekar and Javed Jaffrey, so, it will take us another 10 to 12 days to finalize the cast of the film.”
Kal Kisne Dekha is a romantic-thriller and has Sajid-Wajid composing the music. To which Vashu informs, “We commenced with the recording of the songs on Feb 6 and have finished one track.” Interestingly, Rakesh Roshan recommended the film's title 'Kal Kisne Dekha' as a token of love to Vashu Bhagnani on Vashu's anniversary.
Vashu Bhagnani is expected to start off with 4 films this year, out of which one is Kal Kisne Dekha and the second one is a Govinda starrer to be directed by David Dhawan.
