Discussing the casting process, Shanker said, "Sanya and Vikrant were an easy choice. Their body of work speaks volumes. More importantly, they loved the script. It is always a pleasure to work with actors who love the written word. They were so easy to be with. Open, participative, and passionate about raising the bar.”




The surprise, then, was Bobby. “It was Gaurav Verma from Red Chillies who suggested that we could narrate the script to Bobby," Shanker recalls. "I feel that was one of the best things to have happened. Bobby gave us great feedback, but he wasn’t sure if he wanted to do it. We went back and wrote another draft, and it was only then that he said yes.”


The suggestions helped elevate the emotional quotient of the film. “He prepared for the role by absolutely surrendering to the process. For a director, that is gold. Bobby brought credibility to the role with total commitment.”


The makers of Love Hostel dropped the first look poster of the movie which will stream on ZEE5 from 25 February, 2022. The film traces the volatile journey of a spirited young couple (Vikrant and Sanya), being hunted by a ruthless mercenary (Bobby). 


The star-crossed lovers take on the entire world in search of their fairy-tale ending. 'Love Hostel' is produced by Gauri Khan, Manish Mundra and Gaurav Verma, and is a Red Chillies Entertainment presentation of a Drishyam Films production. 


Love Hostel premieres on ZEE5 on February 25.
