According to Tara, she had a chance to work with the star even before she signed up for SOTY2. Tara revealed, "I auditioned for Aladdin and I was supposed to play the character of Jasmine in that. I went to London and did a workshop with the director. They wanted to find the right boy as well because the chemistry was also important. But then, it did not work out. It is so ironic that I did not do that film but then he came on board and we ended up doing this one. It was really fun."
So, did she miss out on an opportunity in Hollywood? "I have no regret because soon after I auditioned and signed SOTY2. Hopefully, in future, I will get some offer and then I can do both," adds the actress who has been practicing dance and music for many years before she entered the world of cinema," added Tara.
Directed by Punit Malhotra, produced by Karan Johar, SOTY2 will be releasing on May 10.
