After a mega search for the actress who would play Abhay Deol's love interest in SNAFU, the makers have decided to choose Puja Gupta. Puja, who beat over 50 fresh faces auditioned over 20 days, to bag the role. Puja plays the role of Aaniya, an ambitious corporate highflyer who belongs to a small town and moved to Mumbai to make it big.
After winning the Miss India crown in 2007, Puja made her Bollywood debut with Remo D'Souza's 'F.A.L. T.U' and 'Go Goa Gone'.
Director, Sethu Sriram said, " It's a relief that the hunt is over. This role is very critical to the storyline and the girl had to be much more than singing, dancing and looking good. After a lot of deliberations we have decided upon Puja. Aaniya is an ambitious small town girl so we needed the vulnerability of a small towner along with high glam quotient who would be a head turner. I have auditioned a lot of promising fresh faces and a few upcoming names, some of them were brilliant but Puja fits the bill naturally. With all humility, I want to thank Abhay who helped me in streamlining the process'.
