Salman and Kareena together again?

 

Back in 1999, Bhansali had chosen Aishwarya Rai and Salman Khan as the leads for his film Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and since then, both have always been his first choice. But after a huge tiff between Aish and Sallu, things went awry and Bhansali put his project away for a later date in hope that the issue would settle down. Now that Aishwariya is happily married, Bhansali wondered about raising the issue once again with Salman but decided against it as it seemed like an impossible feat. 

Rumours such as Abhishek replacing Salman in the film have long flown out the window ever since Bhansali confirmed that he has started to discuss the project with Kareena Kapoor. In his opinion, she suits the role of "Mastani" the best after Aish. Salman and Kareena's last movie together was Mr & Mrs Khanna which did not fair too well at the box office. But Bhansali's film may just bring luck, he believes that the duo have great chemistry. 

Consequently, Salman will be cast as Bajirao while Kareena as Mastani, wife of Peshwa Bajirao. Mastani's story is of immense bravery and is as famous as the story of 'Jhansi Ki Rani'.  Mastani went to battlefield to fight with her husband against their various enemies and is known to have sacrificed her life soon after her husband's death. 

If Kareena actually lands the role, this sure one is sure to be yet another hit in her kitty!
