Saif, too, had asked Soha to tell him about some good directors, because he wants to work with talented directors in his production company,” says a source.Soha then told Saif about her conversation with Tigmanshu and asked him to meet the director once.

“The filmmaker narrated the script to Saif and the actor agreed to do the film,” adds the source.
