Bollywood actress Soha Ali Khan has revealed that she used to have an unfavourable impression of Emraan Hashmi, who she worked in the movie ‘ Tum Mile’.
In an interview, Soha was asked to choose the better co-star between Emraan and R Madhavan, whom she was paired opposite in Rang De Basanti. She picked the former. Soha said, “I actually worked more with Emraan because it was a longer role. I really enjoyed them both but I would say Emraan because I had an impression of him that I didn’t have of Madhavan before. I thought Emraan would be very different and he was really very professional, always on time and a really warm person to work with. I don’t know why I thought he wouldn’t be.”

Soha admitted that she does not know why she had such negative preconceived notions about Emraan. “I thought he would wake up late and not really learn his lines and he wouldn’t be such a good actor. I really don’t know why, I hadn’t seen a lot of his work. But he was really understated and very good to work with,” she said.
Until now, Soha has worked in only one film – Tum Mile – with Emraan. Directed by Kunal Deshmukh, the film was a love story set in the backdrop of the 2005 Mumbai floods, and also starred VJ Mantra, Sachin Khedekar, and Rituraj Singh.
