'Ek Chhoti Si Love Story' Kid Aditya Returns As Male Lead In 'Puraani Jeans'

More than a decade back, a small film by the name of Ek Chhoti Si Love Story <2002> had hit the screen. Story of a teenage boy who had a voyeuristic crush on his neighbor (played by Manisha Koirala), the film had turned out to be a surprise success at the box office, courtesy controversies surrounding it.

Circa 2014 and the teenage boy has grown up into a handsome young man who is ready to make his big screen debut as a male lead. He is Aditya Seal, who would be seen in 'Puraani Jeans'. Directed by debutant Tanushri Chattrji Bassu, the film is said to be a coming of age tale about a bunch of youngsters. Set in Himachal Pradesh, the heartwarming tale of today's youth from a small town features Tanuj Virwani as the other male lead along with Izabelle Leite who is the solo heroine in the film.

Says Tanushri, "You have to see Aditya to believe it; he has grown into his handsome young man. Also, unlike the introvert persona that he had in his first film, he is pretty flamboyant in 'Puraani Jeans'. He loves rock music, likes hanging out with friends and is the most mastikhor amongst them all. He is someone you can expect to kick-start a party any time."

Considering the fact that as a kid he pretty much watched all the party from a distance Ranvir Shorey in Ek Chhoti Si Love Story?>, it would be interesting to see how Aditya brings on a party of his own in 'Puraani Jeans' which is an Eros International production with music by Ram Sampath. The film releases all over on 1st May.
