As Ramu’s blue-eyed boy Mohit Ahlawat has already opted out of the project, he has roped in model Prashant Raj to portray Jai’s character in his film.
Ramu says he always looks out for fresh faces and when Prashant came for the screen test he realized that his search for Jai was over.
Although Prashant comes from modeling background and has no experience of acting, Ramu has no problem with it as Prashant fits into the character very well.
According to Ramu, Jai in his movie is going to be different than the Jai of yesteryear’s Sholay . He will be more intense than Amitabh Bachchan of Ramesh Sippy’s film.
Ramu will start shooting Jai and Veeru’s part from December 4th. Now, the final cast of ‘Ram Gopal Varma Ki Sholay’ is: Amitabh Bachchan , Ajay Devgan , Nisha Kothari , Sushmita Sen and Prashant Raj. All we can now hope is no more change in the cast.
WHO IS PRASHANT?
Prashant has been doing modeling after completing his graduation from Delhi University. His lanky 6ft 2inch frame, intense brooding eyes and his attitude on the ramp made him an accomplished runway model.
Prashant was the first runner up in the Grasim Mr. India pageant in 2004. Later, in 2005, he won the title of Mr. Model of the Universe in Quito, Ecuador. Since then, he has done print campaigns and ramp shows in India, Sri Lanka and Ecuador.
