If you have seen the trailer, you must have noticed that Jake McLaughlin plays Priyanka’s love interest in the show. There was someone else also who wanted to play the role of Priyanka’s lover but didn’t get it. Vijay Mallya’s son Sid Mallya had auditioned for the part but the actor didn’t get it.
“Priyanka’s character is called Alex and I had read up for the part of her lover. I guess I didn’t get the part because they wouldn’t want two Indians opposite each other. But I have to tell you it was the best pilot script that I had read. I did a talent show with ABC, which is why I got to read for a lot of parts for their shows. Quantise was by far their best,” Sid was quoted by DNA.
