Boney Kapoor has planned to start in September a re-make of the Telugu film 'Pokhiri' with Salman Khan opposite an actress who hasn't yet acted with the star. The movie will be directed by Prabhu Deva, though. Salman Khan will play the character originally played by Mahesh Babu in Telugu. It is wondered if Asin, the Telugu actress who co-starred with Mahesh Babu, will be signed for it! Incidentally, Asin has already signed an exclusive contract for the Hindi remake of another South Indian blockbuster 'Ghajini' opposite Aamir Khan. In that eventuality, Boney may zero in on Kangana, who with her unique personality and her 'Gangster' performance has hugely impressed him as well as his wife Sridevi. Interestingly, Kangana is playing opposite Salman who is the latter's half age. However, Kangana doesn't mind it and argues that after all, Katrina Kaif had starred opposite Salman in 'Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya' without caring for the hero's age. And, Salman has been lucky in this respect; he has already played opposite a blue-eyed Sneha in the past. Isn't it, Sallu bhai?
