Big B to play Katrina's love interest ?

Now, this is one piece of news we did not see coming. If reports are to be believed, megastar Amitabh Bachchan is set to romance the much younger Katrina Kaif in director Nikhil Advani's next. We might see the unique pairing in Advani's ambitious project 'Mehrunnisa'.

Katrina Kaif is the much in demand lead these days, but we are sure nobody would have visualized the hot lady to form a couple with none other than Mr Bachchan, even if it were on-screen. But according to sources, this coup is very likely to happen soon since Nikhil Advani has approached both the actors for the same. Senior Bachchan has already played a similar character in Ram Gopal Varma's 'Nishabd', but it would be interesting to see Katrina play such a challenging role, and that too against a very intimidating actor.

Advani has earlier directed Karan Johar's tear-fest 'Kal Ho Na Ho' and the recent 'Patiala House', so with 'Mehrunissa' he is certainly going out of his comfort level. The movie is yet to go on the floors, Rishi Kapoor is already finalised to play one character while Vidya Balan was earlier rumoured to be playing the lead.

It's just a movie...people...Kat will be playing a 20y.old (opposite a younger actor)...and a 60y.old...do you want her to be romancing Imran Khan for a 60y.old character?...of course it make sense to romance AB for that...sounds like an interesting movie.

Imran Khan can play the 60y.old... just like her 😉
