Child artiste Harshaali Malhotra, who will be seen sharing screen space with Salman Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan in upcoming film ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’, has already won everyone’s hearts in the trailer of the film, but what many might not know is the process of her selection.



A source attached to the film says, “Kabir and his team were looking for fresh faces indeed, after auditioning over 5000 kids, the makers selected Harshaali Malhotra for the role of Munni.”



Not just viewers, but also Salman Khan seems to be floored by the little lady as he had recently stated, “You should watch her in the film. In the film, I have carried her on my shoulders, but let me tell you that Harshaali has carried us all on her shoulders as far as the film is concerned.”



Directed by Kabir Khan, ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and the film is slated to release this Eid.
