Harman Baweja in Ashutosh Gowarikar’s next film

Shahid Kapur has smacked gold with his performance in Jab We Met and is one of the most preferred actors in Bollywood. Still, recently when Ashutosh Gowarikar approached him for the main lead in his upcoming film, Shahid ignored his calls. Ashutosh then approached and signed the other promising newcomer, Harman Baweja. After Lagaan, Swades and Jodhaa Akbar, Ashutosh was keen on making a light-hearted romantic comedy with teenagers and so he approached Shahid Kapur. However, Shahid started acting pricey and after the first meeting started ignoring Ashutosh. Ashutosh tried calling Shahid several times but was disappointed and upset with Shahid. He then went ahead and narrated the script to Harman and signed him to play the lead opposite Priyanka.
