After Hrs had reported that Parineeti Chopra was being considered to play the leading lady opposite Salman Khan in YRF's Sultan. Even though there is still no confirmation on this, Pari is still in the running. However, there is one more contender for the role: Kriti Sanon, who was last seen in Heropanti and has Dilwale coming up next.

Both the actresses have their respective godfathers promoting them. Sultan producer Aditya Chopra believes his protge is best suited for the role, while Salman Khan wants Kriti to be in the film because she is his buddy Sajid Nadiadwala's mentee. Sajid wants her to be paired with top heroes because that is the quickest way to the top.

It remains to be seen which actress finally lands the part. But more often than not, Salman gets his way. So don't be surprised if Kriti wins this round.
