Ferrari Ki Sawaari Kareena or Katrina ?

Bollywood Actor Sharman Joshi is all set to start shooting under the direction of debutant Rajesh Mapuskar and Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s next production, Ferrari Ki Sawaari. But the toughest question is who will play his leading lady. It is learnt that the filmmakers are considering either Kareena Kapoor or Katrina Kaif to play the lead.

Interestingly, the female lead’s role was completely absent in the film’s initial drafts. Hirani introduced the role when he took over the scripting of the movie. “Raju was in the process of scripting his next when Vinod asked him to write Ferrari Ki Sawaari. While writing this film, he came up with Joshi’s wife’s character, which is pivotal to the storyline,” reveals a source.

Katrina Mapuskar suggested casting Kaif as the wife whose character features in the flashback sequence, in black-and-white. “Rajesh is keen on Katrina as he feels she will look like the leading ladies in the era of black-and-white cinema,” explains a source.

On the other hand, Hirani and Chopra were considering Kapoor as she has done a scene in 3 Idiots with R Madhavan and Joshi, who unite her with their long-lost friend Rancho, played by Aamir Khan.

Kapoor declined to comment saying she hasn’t yet been approached for the role. “I had a wonderful time working in 3 Idiots. And apart from Aamir, Raju and Vinod, I also got along fabulously with Sharman and Madhavan,” she adds.

Chopra says that it is still too early to know who will be cast as Joshi’s wife in the movie. “We have already seen Sharman and Kareena in 3 Idiots and everyone loved them in the movie. In another few days, we’ll take the final call on the casting for this role,” he says.

Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini

Bollywood Actress Rani Mukherjee's sexy in her bikini In Dil Bole Hadippa Believe it or not, but the whole ‘bikini top ‘n’ skimpy shorts’ avatar in short — flaunting Rani Mukerji’s hot new bod wasn’t her idea. 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. ...

'I have no heartfelt desire to work with SRK’: Ranbir Kapoor

Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor maintains he never said he was desperate to share screen space with Shah Rukh Khan, but admitted he would love to work with the superstar if a good project came his way. “I had no such dil ki tamanna (heartfelt desire) to work with Shah Rukh sir. But I respect him a lot. I am a big fan of him,” Ranbir told reporters on the margins of the HT Leadership Summit here Friday. The 28-year-old, who was here with his father, evergreen star Rishi Kapoor, says a superstar’s presence in a project isn’t reason enough for him to accept it. “It’s not that if a superstar will be there in a film, I’ll agree to do it. But if I like a film, I like its script, I would be more than glad to do it,” he added. Nevertheless, Ranbir enjoys the attention he gets from the youth.
