Kalank starring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, and Kunal Kemmu has finally released in the theatres and has managed to do a decent business at the box office. However, did you know that not Alia, Deepika Padukone was the first choice to play Roop in the movie?
Sources close to Pinkvilla have revealed that the production house had first approached Deepika to play Roop opposite Varun Dhawan but she turned it down. Hence, the role went to Alia who looks every bit beautiful in each frame of the movie. While the reason for Deepika turning down the offer is unknown, it would have been the first time the duo would have come together onscreen.
Deepika took a break post Padmaavat, where she played the role of Rani Padmaavati, to concentrate more on her personal life. The actress then got married to Ranveer Singh in November, 2018 in what can be called a high profile wedding. After her much-need break, she is now busy shooting for Meghna Gulzar's Chhapaak, where she stars alongside Vikrant Massey. Chhapaak will also see Deepika turn producer for the first time. No wonder, Deepika has been making some wise decisions over the years.
