Vidyut Jammwal gets his heroine in Shivaleeka Oberoi for next Khuda Hafiz

In a first of sorts, Shivaleeka Oberoi has landed herself a second lead role, even before her debut movie Yeh Saali Aashiqui has hit the screens. The new movie titled Khuda Hafiz is already on the floors and has Shivaleeka playing Vidyut Jamwal’ love interest.

The actor is already shooting for the film in Uzbekistan and is super excited about the opportunity. "I am really thankful to Kumar Mangat ji for showing faith in me. It’s wonderful to be working with an actor of Vidyut's caliber and experience. I am learning a lot and it's a role very different from what I have portrayed in my first film which makes it all the more challenging," the young actress said. Faruk Kabir is directing Khuda Hafiz which will be released next year.

Signing her second film even before the release of the first is seen as an achievement for most newcomers because most producers evaluate the audience response to a debutante before they cast the actor. Clearly, Shivaleeka has checked all the right acting boxes.

Meanwhile, Shivaleeka is eagerly awaiting the release of Yeh Saali Aashiqui on November 22. Cast opposite Vardhan Puri, she plays a college girl and her role stretches over a couple of years. Prior to signing her first movie, Shivaleeka was a model and also assistant director To Sajid Nadiadwala.
