&quot;Saif was not the first choice. Imran was supposed to do it but he was not sure if he wanted to do it at that point of a time,&quot; Adajania told in an interview. <img alt="Imran Khan" src="/imagedata/2012/jul/Imran-Khan_3.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 481px; " /> Being produced by Saif&#39;s Illuminati Films, the film will come out July 13. &quot;As Saif is the producer, he was going through the scripts, he read it and loved it. So, it worked out pretty well and that is how he came on board,&quot; he said. Adajania debuted as a director with dark film &quot;Being Cyrus&quot; and it had Saif in the lead role. Dimple Kapadia and Boman Irani too featured in it. For &quot;Cocktail&quot; too the director has roped in Dimple-Boman to play prominent roles. Explaining their presence in the cast, he said: &quot;Dimple and Boman are also there in the film and it is not like they were in &#39;Being Cyrus&#39; so are part of this film as well. It is not a matter of familiarity but using talented actors who fit the bill.&quot; u00a0
