Actor Sooraj Pancholi, who made his big Bollywood debut with "Hero", now wants to do a purely romantic film sans action scenes. And he'd love to have Alia Bhatt or Deepika Padukone as his on-screen love interest.
"I want to do a purely romantic film in which I don't have to do any action. Dance is okay, but don't want this body building and action", said Sooraj.
Asked which actresses would he want to romance on screen, Sooraj said: "Only two actresses -- Alia Bhatt and Deepika Padukone."
Sooraj and his "Hero" co-star Athiya were present together at Subhash Ghai's film institute to interact with the acting students.
