Ranbir-Deepika love affair may be the talk of the town,but director Siddharth Anand whose film 'Bachna Ae Hasino' features the couple says he did not try to cash in on their off-screen chemistry in the film.

"I did not exploit Ranbir-Deepika off-screen chemistry. Its a team effort. A captain needs help from every team member and not some of them," says the director.

Apart from Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone, the film also stars Bipasha Basu, Minissha Lamba and Hiten Paintal in an important role. And Siddharth is pretty happy by the work of his cast."I am a tough taskmaster. But fortunately, I had actors who could understand and compliment me."

"I am a tough taskmaster. But fortunately, I had actors who could understand and compliment me," he says.

Talking about the film's story, Anand says, "It's a story of a man named Raj and the three different women who enter his life when he is 16, 24 and 30".

He says that Ranbir was his first choice for the role of 'Raj' in the movie.

"I needed someone who could play 16 and 30 at the same time. So, from the onset, it was Ranbir. And I knew he is a good actor," says the young director who is working with Yash Raj banner for the third time.

Siddharth had earlier director 'Salaam Namaste' and 'Ta Ra Rum Pum' for Yash Raj.

The movie has a total budget of around Rs. 19-crore rupee and no Hindi movie has been shot in so many foreign locations before, according to him.
