The Moranis share a long bonding with Shah Rukh Khan, as they have been organising shows abroad.

Giselle Monteiro

Brazilian model Giselle Monteiro, 20, surely must have made her presence felt as the Badshah of Bollywood made the call many young girls would kill to receive.
Shah Rukh liked her performance in Love Aaj Kal so much that he recommended Giselle for the role in Always, Kabhi Kabhi.
Ali Fazal

Satayjeet Dubey
Satyajeet Dubey has the perfect look to be the next chocolate boy hero.
In the movie, he will play a loveable geek, who will be paired opposite Zoa Morani.
