Parineeti Chopra is Yash Raj films' new discovery. She makes her debut in Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl.

The film stars Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma in the lead roles and is directed by Maneesh Sharma (of Band Baaja Baraat fame). Parineeti has been with YRF for over a year in the marketing department.



Given a one-off chance to audition for the film, she impressed both Maneesh and Aditya Chopra and was immediately cast for a role as one of the ladies who fall prey to the smooth-talking guile of Ricky Bahl.

"I think Parineeti was phenomenal in her video test.

I had no doubts that I wanted her in my film. In fact, when I worked on the script, I had her at the back of my mind, having interacted with her while she was in office," said Maneesh Sharma.
