Deeps, Kat - At Counter Ends Again?!

Actresses Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif have found yet another ground to pursue their rivalry. The two beautiful ladies have had a cold relation, previously, over the Ranbir Kapoor controversy. During the estrangement phase of ex couple Ranbir and Deepika, there was much buzz of alleged romantic alliance between the then co-stars and instant mates Kat and Ranbir. It led to differences between the ladies, which eventually never found a resolution.

This time however, the tussle is purely professional. It stems from the bid for protagonist's role opposite Akshay Kumar in upcoming venture Joker. Apparently, both are competing in a race to star in this movie with Action Akki.

The upcoming film Joker is going to be a joint film by Akshay's home production, Hari Om, and Farah and Shirish's Three's Company.

There seems to be some kind of mis-communication which has led both the actresses to believe that they are respectively playing the lead for the film; and it doesn't help the cause that neither is aware of the other's chances to bag the same role.

Uh, oh. This puts Akshay in a very difficult position doesn't it?

It is well known that professionally, and personally, Akshay shares a cordial bonding with both actresses, and would hence want to disappoint neither.

Co-producer Shirish is choosing to stay out from all the mess, while maintaining that the hunt for a lead is still on. Since no one is finalized yet, the dilemma stands.
