Aishwarya Rai Bachchan or Deepika Padukone who will star in Shah Rukh

A while back we had reported that the
Rakesh Sharma biopic that starred Shah
Rukh Khan had finally been titled as Salute.
However, while the actor has already begun
prep work for the film, the female lead had
yet to be finalized. Now we hear that the
makers of the film have shortlisted two
actresses in the final run up. The two
actresses who are equally big in their own
right we hear are none other than
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Deepika
Padukone.
Commenting on the same a source close to
the film, Salute informs us, "The makers of
Salute have been on the lookout for the lead
actress for some time now and have finally
narrowed it down to just two names viz.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Deepika
Padukone. Continuing further the source
adds, "Though as of now it is just these
two names, a final decision will be taken
soon and an official announcement of the
same will be made via the known media
networks. However till then everyone will
have to await the final credit list of the film.
Interestingly, Shah Rukh Khan who is
currently busy with his Aanand L Rai film
Zero is looking to start filming Salute in
September this year. The reason behind
locking a September date for starting the
film is so that Shah Rukh can commence
work on Salute and take a break to
promote Zero.
As of now an official announcement on the
female lead for Salute is awaited.

Although I am dying to see Aish and Shahrukh in a movie...but this role of RS's wife won't suit glamorous actresses like Aish and Deepu...there needs to be someone more earthy ...like Konkona or even Vidya...

Aishwarya is selected.. they will make a good husband-wife pair 👍🏼

25 years later and she's still being offered top projects. This is astounding.

Agree with this.

Or someone like Gayatri Joshi in Swades, who was perfect for that role

Agree with both of you 😛
SRK Gayatri were awesome in Swadesh 😛
But hasn't she left acting? Haven't seen her around for so long 😕

Holy s h i t.
