"Akshaye Khanna was always the first choice. He was the first guy I ever met for that film. And I actually met him at that time because I wanted to cast him in the role that Aamir eventually played. So I spoke to him about the role that was Akash. I wanted him (Akshaye Khanna) to play Aakash. I wanted Hrithik Roshan as Sameer and I wanted Abhishek Bachchan as Sid. That was my ideal casting", says Farhan.
