Asin must have very good reasons to refuse a dream role opposite
Shah Rukh Khan in Farah Khan penned and helmed
Happy New Year, but no one can fathom it. Asin was offered the role after she appeared on Farah's talk show,
Tere Mere Beach Mein, but despite her initial excitement, she declined citing date problems. In the past Asin has publically expressed a desire to act with the third Khan (Shah Rukh), having made her Bollywood debut with
Aamir Khan in
Ghajini (2008) and followed it up by romancing
Salman Khan in
London Dreams. When asked what governed her choice when signing films, Asin told Mumbai Mirror: "The most important factors are script, character, director, producer, co-actor - in exactly this order. While selecting a role, I completely rely on my gut instinct." No one is quite sure at what point in her selection sequence she dropped Farah's film, though we can be sure it wasn't at the end. Other potential candidates for
Happy New Year include Priyanka chopra,
Deepika Padukone and
Kareena Kapoor.
The film is scheduled to start production by year end.
