While the powerful video announcement of Sudhanshu Saria's Sanaa is making the right noise on social media, the filmmaker has managed a casting coup by landing Pooja Bhatt in a key role in his next directorial.

Bhatt joins the already stellar cast comprising Radhika Madan, Sohum Shah and Shikha Talsania. The excitement for the female-fronted film will only grow with the addition of Pooja Bhatt.

Producer-Director-Writer Sudhanshu Saria says, “They say the right casting is 90% of the challenge and with Pooja, I can confidently say we’ve hit a home run.

Besides being a phenomenal actor whose performances I grew up on, she is a bold voice for positive change in our society and I am so grateful she found the material compelling enough to say yes. It’s a firecracker character and I can’t wait to see how Pooja brings it to life.”

Pooja Bhatt says, “As an actor and a woman, the storyline of Sanaa speaks to me. Being able to empathise with the role (I essay in the film) was an effortless outcome of the emotionally nuanced story. I'm thrilled that such a role has come to me.”

Produced by Four Line Entertainment, directed and written by Sudhanshu Saria , 'Sanaa' stars Radhika Madan, Pooja Bhatt, Shikha Talsania and Sohum Shah. Saria was recently announced as the director of a high octane female-led espionage, 'Ulajh', with Junglee Pictures.
