Deepika replacing Katrina?

Anees Bazmee's Welcome released at the end of last year was a super hit at the box-office and therefore it came as no surprise when the director declared plans for the sequel Welcome Back. The film will star Akshay Kumar, Nana Patekar, Anil Kapoor but leading lady Katrina won't be a part of it.

Deepika Padukone is expected to replace Kat while Mallika Sherawat is expected to get a much important role in the sequel. A close source to Deepika told us about her involvement in Welcome Back.

"Firoz Nadiawala had approached Deepika for this film while shooting for Chandni Chowk to China. She has not yet made up her mind about whether she might do a role in sequel of Welcome."

"She is very busy with Chandni Chowk to China which is about to finish in few weeks. Deepika had seen Welcome and she had liked the movie so she hasn't said yet no to them," says the source.

Speaking more about Chandni Chowk to China, the source tells us that for the first time "Deepika will be doing some great stunts matching with Akshay Kumar."

It seems none of Akki's leading ladies can get enough of him. First Katrina couldn't stop being paired with the khiladi and now Deepika is the next. After Chandni Chowk to China she will be also seen in Sajid Khan's Houseful with him and Welcome Back if she is to give it her nod.

thanks...i dont like the jodi--

Rule of thumb is not believe anything till either the director or the actor clearly confirms it.Inside sources/sources close to the Chopra's..... are all rubbish.

What is there to hide?Concerned people would be only too happy to announce their film and cast!

'koi chori tho nahin ki,daaka tho nahin daala' 😆.

Besides it doesn't seem like a film Deepika would sign ...'Houseful' is I think a grateful gesture towards Farah Khan.

if this is true then it aint very surprising because Deepika's performance in her debut movie was better than all of Katrina's performances added together

but then this is Welcome sequel will mean that there will be zero acting involved, so maybe Katrina will be a better choice

I was thinking that why would a director break up a Jodi for and i do not want to see deepika in this genre hate these kind of films 🤢

i think this new jodis also rock and breaks may be some records
