While speculation is rife about ex One Director singer Zayn Malik venturing into Bollywood as an actor, our sources tell us that he has struck a music deal for an upcoming Hindi film. The 22- year- old is said to be collaborating with Kanika Kapoor, who crooned the chartbuster Baby Doll.

Says a source, " Kanika and Zayn are set to work on a song for an upcoming movie. They have already met to discuss the music." Kanika refrained from sharing any details on the rumoured collaboration. " I don't want to comment on this right now. Whenever I have to announce anything, I will make sure that I tell you." A source close to her, however, confirms the development, saying: " Things are at an initial stage, but it will be big for sure." On quite a few occasions, Zayn has expressed his interest to step into Bollywood.

At a recent awards function, the singing sensation had met Shah Rukh Khan and posted their selfie on social media. Last week, he and filmmaker Farah Khan had exchanged tweets talking about a possibility of Zayn being part of the sequel of SRK- starrer Main Hoon Na.
