Radhika Apte in Honey Trehan's next?

Casting director Honey Trehan who is all set to make his directorial debut with actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui has been hunting for a leading lady for a while. Earlier, there were reports of Tapsee Pannu being approached but she has politely turned down the offer.

Now Radhika Apte has been approached for this film. “Honey did meet Radhika to discuss the script. Though she liked the concept, she is yet to sign the dotted lines,” a source said. Honey was earlier supposed to make his directorial debut with Sapna Didi starring Irrfan Khan and Deepika Padukone but he later exited from the project. The casting director known for his sharp sense has also produced Konkona Sen Sharma’s Death In The Gunj. Meanwhile, Nawaz will next be seen in Manto.
