'Hijack' starring Shiney Ahuja and Esha Deol is scheduled to release on August 29.

Shivdasani said the real hero of his film is the script. To a question on why he chose Shiney and Esha, who are not such big names at the box office, for his debut film, the filmmaker said audiences are receptive to new faces and fresh ideas.

"Shiney plays a character which audiences will relate to immediately. There is a hero within every ordinary human and how far one would go if faced with an extraordinary situation. The story brings out this element in the film," he added.

Shivdasani said 'Hijack' is not a true story but a fiction drama. "Having new faces comes with an advantage because there is no baggage of expectations," he said.

According to him, the advantage of having new faces in the film is that the audience does not know what to expect from them.

Claiming that Esha has been portrayed in a different manner in his film, the director said, "she is the surprise element in the movie."
