I was Hrithik’s choice: Shaurya Chauhan

Like many other models, Shaurya Chauhan too had dreams of making it to the celluloid. And given her dare-to-bare attitude, that wasn’t very difficult.
Shaurya, who is perhaps best known for a commercial that saw her pose provocatively with a male model with just a muslin cloth protecting their modesty, is now ready to show that she has arrived in B-town with a role in Hrithik Roshan’s Krrish 3.
“It’s one of my biggest films so far and I am happy with my role. I am sure audiences will love my look in the film,” says Shaurya, who essays the female antagonist’s role in the film.
Apparently, the Roshans were on the lookout for an edgy actor and had approached several senior Bollywood stars before the role was offered to Shaurya. The makers were in talks with Chitrangda Singh who wasn’t satisfied with role, while Jacqueline Fernandez had reservations about locking lips with Hrithik. Rockstar girl Nargis Fakhri too turned it down. “I am aware of all the developments, but I don’t want to get into any controversies about who rejected the role,” she says, adding, “I was Hrithik’s and Rakeshji’s choice”.
And while her smooch with Hrithik in the film is the talk of town, Shaurya is hesistant to talk about it. “I can’t comment on that at the moment,” says Shaurya. But what she is more than willing to talk about is her look in the film. “My look is being styled by Hrithik, who is actively involved in the making of the film. He is on the sets everyday and has watched every scene of mine. He can’t shoot now because of his back injury,” she says.
Shaurya’s other B-town film, Sabki Bajegi Band, will trace the rise and fall of a supermodel. But the similarity with the film Fashion ends there, assures Shaurya.
