Shriya Saran never ceases to surprise you at regular intervals. What if her film with Kollywood stars like Ajit and Dhanush did not happen? Well she has signed up to play Bollywood Box-Office baron Akshay Kumar’s heroine in Deepa Mehta directed Komagata Maru

Speaking to sify.com from Malaysia, where she is shooting for Sarathkumar's K.S Ravikumar directed Jaggubhai, an excited Shriya said: “I’m on top of the world, as I 'm doing Deepa Mehta's epic Komagata Maru. Deepaji is my favourite director and it is a great honour to do a film with her." Remember Shriya had done Deepa Mehta's last film What's Cooking.

Komagata Maru is an epic film based on a true story surrounding the voyage of a Japanese ship by the name 'Komagata Maru' hired by people from Punjab led by Gurdit Singh from Hong Kong to Vancouver in 1914 with 376 passengers on board seeking a new life in the promised land.

It is a journey of one man's courage that challenged the largest empire in the world. It bears open the heroism of Gurdit Singh, who dares to have an impossible dream- a life of freedom, equality, and dignity. The film also depicts the martyrdom of Mewa Singh.

Akshay Kumar has confirmed that he will be playing the lead Gurdit Singh, in this collaboration with Deepa Mehta. Talks are going on with various other actors including Hollywood top stars making this truly an international project on a budget of $35 to 40 million being produced by Hamilton-Mehta Production Inc. in association with Akshay Kumar's home production, Hari Om Entertainment.

Not even the producer or director had anything to do with it. After she realised how much she had toned up (to play a male cricketer in Dil Bole Hadippa!), Rani just happened to discuss this idea with her designer friend Manish Malhotra. And from there on it was Manish’s game plan, after all, he’s transformed many a Bollywood girl in to glam queens. He suggested that it would be a pity to waste such a well-toned body by not showing it off. That’s how the idea of a special song was born. And is she looking hot? Talk about her ‘shapely’ success, and Rani says, “Believe me, I didn’t starve at all. I love my food, especially rice and sweets. There was no way I was giving up all that. So, I just worked out harder and was occasionally allowed my ‘cheat’ meals of rice, sweets, etc. ...
