Recently there was news that Parineeti
Chopra has been signed to play Akshay
Kumar's (Havildar Ishar Singh) wife in
Anurag Singh's film Kesari, based on the
Battle of Saragarhi and produced by Karan
Johar. The shooting of the period war
drama is said to start in January 2018. Now
we have heard that Katrina Kaif too has
been approached for the same role.
Interestingly, when Salman Khan was
producing the film, the buzz was that
Katrina Kaif was eager to be a part of his
and Karan Johar's next production venture.
Apparently, both Salman and Anurag were
keen that Katrina be a part of the film and
everyone knows that KJo and the actress are
very close.
Says a trade source, "Though media has
written about Parineeti Chopra being in
Kesari, there is strong speculation that it
may not happen as her dates are clashing
with that of Vipul Shah's Namaste Canada in
January next year. Katrina has also been
approached by Karan Johar to play Akshay's
wife. Akshay has always approached Katrina
for most of his films including Singh Is Bling
and Toilet... Ek Prem Katha but the actress
has turned them down for her own reasons.
But she seems to be considering Kesari as
now her good friend KJo has offered it to
her. Katrina and Akshay also have always
made a striking pair on screen. But for
Katrina, the main issue is dates as she has
been approached for Shree Narayan Singh's
Roshni opposite Shahid Kapoor. That film
too goes on the floor from January next year
so Katrina is in a dilemma.
It has been noticed in recent times that
Akshay and Katrina have been bonding a lot
together. The duo along with Aaditya
Thackeray flagged off the 9th Akshay Kumar
Kudo Tournament on Saturday where the
duo danced together after years. Post that, a
usually reserved Katrina was lavish in her
praise for the actor, when she took to
Instagram to share a picture of hers with
Akshay and wrote, "Akshay... You were right.
You take better pics than me... Finally a
picture together after a longgg time...
Love you Akshay Kumar."
If it happens, then we may get to see Akshay
and Katrina together on screen after a gap
of almost seven years. They were last seen
together in Tees Maar Khan. The duo's
equation and onscreen chemistry are loved
by all and they have given some big hits like
Singh Is Kinng and Namastey London.
Things are not smooth for Parineeti either.
The actress was to begin shooting for
Dibakar Banerjee's thriller, Sandeep Aur
Pinky Faraar, opposite Arjun Kapoor in
Lucknow from October, but the shoot has
got postponed to November now. If she
shoots for Namastey Canada from January
2018 and Kesari too starts from then, then
her dates are clashing too.
