The makers of the film had decided to cast a fresh face opposite Zahid for 'Marksheet', which isn't just a subject based film but would also be a love story. 'Under the creative guidance of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who's also a mentor to Zahid, the makers zeroed in on 20-year-old Shristi who will play a fashion student,' said Suhrita Sengupta, a creative team member.

These are the reason that convinced me to take up this challenge,' Srishti said.
