| Shah Rukh will be seen in a new avatar, romancing three ladies, in Priyadarshan's 75th film! |
| SRK will soon start shooting for Priyadarshan's film Billoo Barber. A Red Chillies Entertainment venture, the film also stars Irrfan Khan in the title role. Billoo Barber is an adaptation of the story of friendship between Krishna and Sudama. Our well-placed source from Red Chillies Entertainment says, "Billoo Barber is a story based on the relationship between Krishna and his childhood friend Sudama. Priyadarshan is adapting this story of friendship between two friends - one rich and the other a poor villager - in a completely new avatar. Here SRK represents Krishna, he plays an actor. On the other hand Irrfan Khan represents Sudama and plays a village barber. The two are friends from school who grow up and drift until they meet again." SRK will be seen romancing three different ladies including Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone. He has already begun shooting with Kareena but is in talks with Deepika and Priyanka. For the second female lead opposite Irrfan, Priyadarshan is scouting for a powerhouse performer, someone like Smita Patil. According to our source Ameesha Patel and Tabu are being considered for the second lead. Adds the source, "Shah Rukh will take the final decision about the cast." The lyrics are written by Gulzar and the screenplay is by Mushtaq Sheikh and Manisha Korde. Billoo Barbar is Priyadarshan's 75th film and is rather reluctant to let us in with more on the film He says, "It's too early to give out details about Billoo Barber. Red Chillies will make an official announcement at the right time." |
