Sushmita Sen essayed the role of Chandni in Farah Khan's directorial debut, _Main Hoon Na_. During a recent interview, Sen spoke about the casting process for the film, revealing that


she was initially unaware of her co-star, Shah Rukh Khan, until after signing the project. Sushmita Sen was genuinely surprised when she found out she would be starring alongside Shah Rukh


Khan in _Main Hoon Na._ She didn't know until after signing the film and, during the actors' meeting, asked Farah Khan about Shah Rukh Khan's unexpected presence. This


revelation added an interesting twist to Sen's journey in the film industry. After Sushmita was on board, Farah called her to Film City. “I never asked her who the hero is, I never


asked anything about the movie. She kept her word, I kept mine and I went there.” “I walk in very matter of factl-y and I walk in and go ‘Oh (with a loud gasp)’. I said ‘Farah, why is Shah


Rukh Khan here? She said he is also wondering why you are here because nobody had been told anything. It was a surprise. I said when you took a promise from me, you should have told me that


Shah Rukh will be in the movie. That’s an amazing thing that happened. She made this film with so much love,” she recalled. She was recently seen in the web series _Aarya_ season 3.
