/> If it was Hansika Motwani in his debut film Aap Ka Surroor, it's filmmaker Indra Kumar's daughter Shweta Kumar for Himesh Reshammiya in Satish Kaushik's under-production version of Karzzz.

And now for his third film, to go on the floors later this year, Himesh will be apired with model Niharika Singh in her screen debut.

Niharika who was Ponds Femina Miss India Earth in 2005 comes from a very non-filmy background in Hardwar.

She has modelled extensively and is quite a known name and face in modeling circles. Currently she's training rigorously in acting and dancing to be worthy of Himesh's hustrionics in John Mathew Mathan's class-defying romance.

While Himesh plays an full-on tapori in A Love Iiiisshtory (Himesh insists the title be spelt with triple 'i' and double 's' ) Niharika will be cast as a la-di-dah high-society Miss.

The romantic conflict arises when the tapori takes on the elitist gori.

This would be Himesh's third starrer, and with a newcomer opposite him.

And that's how he likes it. "My chemistry with new faces on screen has always worked, whether it's in my music videos or my films. So I've taken a policy decision that all the films I'm doing will introduce new faces opposite me."
