How Minissha got signed as Sonia!

Minissha Lamba, last seen as the tame Mahi in Bachna Ae Haseeno, has been in the news for her sexy avatar in the forthcoming Kidnap.

About how and why director Sanjay Gadhvi zeroed down on her, he revealed exclusively, "I believe that there is a shortage of good young talent in the industry. I was looking for a young and effective girl opposite Imran (Khan) in Kidnap as the film centres around her getting kidnapped. I had a number of names in mind but when I put Minissha through a test shoot I knew she was my Sonia."

And what exactly made her clinch it? "I gave her the setting of the shot and she enacted it with the level of meticulousness that one gets to see only with seasoned actors. I told her immediately after the test shoot that she'd be doing Kidnap but would have to lose a bit of weight. She hit the gym immediately and worked out like a nutcase, as you can see in the promos! She's fabulous in the film!"

Commenting on Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Bachna Ae Haseeno , Sanjay adds, "It's funny because I signed both Imran and Minissha way before these two films. The fact that both these films did it for them only proves how proficient the two are. Kidnap will showcase them in a completely new light."

im sure shes gonna do realli good!!!

I think BAH has done the trick for Minissha. She gave a good performance in that and now she has Kidnap as well. And judging by the promos, she seems to have done a good job again.

Miniisha is a good actor.... i liked her performance in BAH even though she didnt have a big role...

i must say she is lucky BAH and kidnapp really did the trick for her. but I still hate her.

i jusss luv minisha shes dam hott n sexy>>>

BUT I DOTN KNOW.. why

she looks older then imran....

and one of site its was shown she was born in 1985 adn imran in 1983'

but even then.. she looks older wicked

She was good in BAH, definitely the best actress out of the three ladies. I'm glad she's doing something more glamourous this time, she looks fantastic in the Kidnap promos. Plus she and Imran are great together!

she makes me think of da old preity zinta whoz lost her cuteness now...
