Ranbir replaces SRK?

Now, Ranbir Kapoor will be the face of Raj Kumar Hirani's Five-Point Someone Back to Section Stories Posted On Monday, November 12, 2007

Kunal M Shah Although his debut hasn't exactly set the cash registers ringing, Ranbir Kapoor seems to have caught many directors' attention. The latest is that Ranbir has been finalised to replace Shah Rukh Khan in Raju Hirani's next. This will be Ranbir's third film after Saawariya and Yashraj's next. The film is based on Chetan Bhagat's novel, Five-Point Someone. Shah Rukh opted out of the film when differences cropped up between him and producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra. Raju Hirani, we hear, is much relieved after Ranbir gave him the nod. Our source says, "Raju Hirani was in a fix as his Munnabhai 3 is stuck due to Sanjay Dutt's legal problems and Shah Rukh Khan opted out of his other film." Hirani held detailed narration sessions with Hrithik Roshan and Abhishek Bachchan, too. Our source reveals, "Both of them were keen to do the film. However, Abhishek's dates were already booked for Dilli 6, and Hrithik was busy with the pre-production of his films with Anurag Basu and Krrish 2 respectively. The moment Hirani saw the promos of Saawariya he made up his mind to approach Ranbir." Hirani even called up Sanjay Leela Bhansali to inquire about Ranbir. "After having had a word with Bhansali, Hirani approached Ranbir. Now everything has been finalised," our source says. Eager to keep the matter hush-hush, Ranbir's father Rishi Kapoor denied the news. A close friend of Ranbir confirmed the story. Raju Hirani remained unavailable for comment. http://www.mumbaimirror.com/net/mmpaper.aspx?page=article&am p;sectid=30&contentid=2007111220071112031436812515f17ce

wow ranbir is on the roll but replacing srk sounds like a pretty big job

not only this movie..i think Ranbir will be taking SRK's place as a Romantic Hero in most of the movies, since SRK is too old for that now...The new romantic hero has arrived 😃

Actually no offense, but somebody can definitely take shharukh's place, he is IRREPACEALE, there is time and age for everything, shahrukh is getting old, not that there is anything wrong with it, but he does mostly "romantic chocolate boy" characters, he won't look good doing those now, because his age is showing.

Hrithik is already kind of surpassing Shahrukh's Legacy, and that's the truth.

srk opted out he wasnt kicked outta this movie so it doesnt really matter if ranbir took this movie. Lets watch how this movie does in box office! now thats what matters. 😊

Ofcourse he is growing old. You dont expect him to look young forever so obviously there will be others doing "young chocolate" boy roles. But surpassing SRK . I cant be too sure of that .

Go ranbir..this guy is sucha great actor 😊

Yep. We need young guys to play college kids not 40 + middle aged men.
