Zoya Akhtar`s The Archies is the launch pad for several new actors. It is headlined by a bunch of fresh talents like Dot, Mihir Ahuja, Vedang Raina, Yuvraj Menda, Suhana Khan, Agastya Nanda and Khushi Kapoor. The musical is releasing on Netflix on December 7. The Archies has been the talking point for various reasons. One of them was the casting.
Suhana, Agastya and Khushi belong to affluent film families. Amid chatter around `nepotism`, Zoya revealed in an interview with India Today that she did have second thoughts about casting Suhana, Agastya and Khushi for the roles of Veronica, Archie and Betty.
