Even as his ad film for a global brand with the fresh pairing of Hrihtik Roshan and Jacqueline Fernandez is making waves, Sahil Sangha has not ruled out the idea of casting the two in a feature film.

Says Sahil “Hrithik and I have been talking about subjects for a while now. As soon as we have a subject that excites both of us, we will have a film together. We will have to wait till we lock the concept and then if both he and Jacqueline are open to the idea of working with me, I’ll be the luckiest guy,” Sahil revealed, adding that he would have to be doubly innovative for such a project, if it happens.

According to him, both Hrithik and Jackie took time off for rehearsals and did a lot of prep work making sure that they were perfectly in sync with the characters, “There’s a graph to every scene and expression and they did justice to it. They brought the perfect familiarity between each other.”

The ad film won him praise from his mentor Nikkhil Advani, who he assisted in the early days of his career, “Nikkhil told me that he felt like a proud father,” he recalls.
