| DEEPIKA PADUKONE |
Deepika
Padukone has chosen Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Bajirao Mastani over Karan Johar’s Shuddhi. Just when we thought that
Karan Johar should finally be relieved at having finalised his actors, we now
hear that the Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani babe has chosen her Goliyon
Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela director’s
ambitious project over Karan’s much awaited Shuddhi. So, was Ranveer
Singh responsible for Miss Padukone’s latest move? Certainly looks like the
lovebirds chose a film that would help them spend more time together.
Sanjay Leela
Bhansali and Karan Johar were to clash at the box office in 2015 December,
while Sanjay has finally found the lead actors for his historical love story in
his Ram-Leela actors, Karan Johar is yet to find his lead actors. Both the
movies went through their casting issues, while Bhansali had originally planned
the movie with Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, it went kaput after the
former lovers parted ways. Rani Mukerji was to replace Ashwariya in this
project and then the movie hit a roadblock. Reports also suggested that
Shahrukh Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan were to play the lead roles when Bhansali
thought of reviving his dream film, but looks like Ranveer-Deepika were
destined to come together for this film.
Karan’s Shuddhi too went through ups and downs. After
being delayed for long, Hrithik Roshan walked out citing health and date
issues, Kareena was informed well in advance so she too claimed to have opted
out. Deepika was the frontrunner for this role and Shahrukh, Aamir Khan, Ranbir
Kapoor and Ranveer Singh‘s names were being tossed to
step into Hrithik Roshan’s shoes. However, with Deepika now having chosen Bajirao Mastani opposite co-star Ranveer, Karan is
left in a lurch.
Will
Karan now cast Dippy’s arch rival to Katrina Kaif alongside her ex-beau Ranbir
Kapoor to even out with Miss Padukone? Well, let’s wait and watch the action
and drama around Shuddhi off
screen, while we still await it to be readied for onscreen.
