All those who have seen the latest poster of upcoming epic adventure-romance Mohenjo Daro, might have gasped at the sight of Hrithik Roshan standing up to two giants in an arena. However, what many might not know is that these two men were selected after the makers auditioned around 300 men! A source attached to the unit revealed, "Since the makers wanted to showcase an actual combat sequence and not use VFX, casting proved to be vital to filming the scene. Director Ashutosh Gowariker auditioned nearly 300 men for this action sequence as he had a specific requirement of two men with an above-average stature and physique to feature opposite Hrithik." From what we have heard, the two men are nearly 7 feet tall and the action sequence mentioned above is one of the highlights of the film. Presented by UTV Motion Pictures and Ashutosh Gowariker Productions, produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur and Sunita Gowariker, Mohenjo Daro, which also stars Pooja Hegde, Arunoday Singh and Kabir Bedi, will release worldwide on 12th August, 2016.
