How did you zero upon Kajal Agrawal to play the female lead?
I had seen her in the Telugu hit Magadheera, one of the costliest films made there. For Singham, I was looking for a new face. And I wanted someone who I did not have to work on or teach acting. And when I saw Magadheera, I got what I was looking for. Kajal is a simple girl, not the typical model type but like the girl-next-door. She does not come out of the water in a two-piece neither is she showing her cleavage. Moreover she is an established actor in Tamil and Telugu and she is a good actress. She has no problem with the language as she is a Mumbai girl born and brought up in Churchgate. I think she is like how Anushka Sharma was in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.
