Recently in an interview Sargun expressed her pride in Priyanka and reminisced about her casting process she shared, “We were unable to find a suitable girl to play the part of Tejo. 7-8 months passed and one day a transition reel came and I kept looking at her face and I thought it was such a relatable face. I went to her profile and it was 6:30 am in the morning and I messaged her from my profile to get in touch.“
She further added, “By 7:30 am she replied with her number and I called my team to get her audition quickly. Around 3 pm she gave me her audition. I saw her audition hardly for 16 seconds and I forwarded it to the part where most of the girls missed the point. After seeing 100 auditions I saw her audition and called Bharti who was from the channel and I said that I found my Tejo. I don’t know what people are gonna say but I found my Tejo. The same day by 09:30 pm Priyanka was locked.” She concluded.
