The action-packed Akshay Kumar who is known to get his way
through the ladies quite easily is now finding it difficult for arranging the
leading lady for his new movie ‘Gabbar’. The movie, which is a remake of the South
Indian blockbuster, ‘Ramana ’, was in
search for the right actress for itself. But the buzz is that many of them are
turning down the offer. Reason? The usual, date issues they say.
‘Gabbar’, which is being produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, was
keen on getting the right face for the film. The role which was vied upon by
many actresses had initially been given to Kareena Kapoor. But since she could
not give bulk dates to the film shoot she then had to opt out of the movie. After
a lot of search for the right one, Shraddha Kapoor of the ‘Aashiqui 2’ fame was approached and then finalized for the movie.
But a quite shocking news came out that Shraddha opted out of the movie at the
last minute, just when the shooting was slated to go on floors on early January
in 2014. This sudden and unexpected hurdle completely made the makers confused.
The shootings had to get cancelled and things turned bad. But nevertheless
Sanjay as well as Akshay were determined to make the film happen even if there
were a little delay. So now what next? The latest news is that they have signed
Shruti Hasan finally and are quite sure that things will move on this time at
least. Interestingly Shruti had been approached even before Shraddha but due to
date issues she couldn’t commit.
Well, so much for getting the right person on
board. Now that they finally got one, we are sure Akki will be back with a bang
with ‘Gabbar’. Hope to see a fresh new chemistry between the sweet and twinkle
eyed Shruti Hasan and the Khiladi
himself..!
