Karan Singh Grover, you'll be surprised to know which actor was the first choice for Boss: Baap Of Special Services!

After remaining absent from the small as well as big screens for quite a long time, the handsome hunk of the industry finally decided to make a comeback by making a debut in the digital space through Ekat Kapoor and ALT Balaji's new web-series titled as Boss: Baap Of Special Services where he will be seen in the lead role alongwith Sagarika Ghatge. But do you know, the actor wasn't the first choice for the lead role?

Yes, that's true! Not Karan, but popular host and comedian Maniesh Paul was the first choice for Grover's role. The confirmation about the same was given by a closed source who informed an entertainment portal and said that his role in the show finalised until before a week of announcement, he got replaced. Talking about the same, the source said, "Maniesh Paul was supposed to play the character which Karan Singh Grover is essaying in the show."
