New Delhi: Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor starrer ‘Udta Punjab' has got another starry presence in it. And this time, it is every-lady's-dream-man, Fawad Khan.
The actor who debuted in Bollywood with Disney's ‘Khoobsurat' opposite Sonam Kapoor has been approached by Abhishek Chaubey to star opposite Kareena Kapoor in ‘Udta Punjab.'
The Pakistani heartthrob is already working opposite Priyanka Chopra in Madhur Bhandarkar's ‘Madamji.' And now if his name has been considered for ‘Udta Punjab' too, her female fans are sure to go gaga over it.
Earlier, the makers of the film had also finalized Ayushmann Khurrana's name for the male lead opposite Kareena Kapoor Khan. But, the speculations were rife that the actress couldn't feel satiated with the decision and ousted Ayushmann from the film. The reasons were deemed to be Kareena's tantrums of not working with a lesser known face like Ayushmann opposite herself in the film.
However, Ayushmann cleared off the air later by saying that he himself had to quit the film considering his prior commitments with other projects.
‘Udta Punjab' made it to the limelight when it was reported that both Kareena and Shahid are coming together for the first time after their split in the year 2007. The reports later claimed that though the ex flames will be there in ‘Udta Punjab,' neither Kareena nor Shahid will share the screen space in the film. Instead Shahid Kapoor will be seen romancing Alia Bhatt in the film.
Both Shahid and Alia Bhatt are also working together in Vikas Bahl's ‘Shandaar.'
Well, the messy game of finalizing a starcast for ‘Udta Punjab' is expected to build a good buzz in the coming days as well, all we wish is to see Kareena and Shahid together!
