Sajid Khan and Bipasha Basu More Pics
Sajid Khan, who last directed the box office turkey, Himmatwala, is finally ready with the cast of his next. Bipasha Basu has been signed for Humshakal.
A source close to the project said: "The makers were confused on the actress to be paired opposite Riteish. They were thinking of Sonal Chauhan, but later decided against it."
Reportedly, Saif Ali Khan and Riteish Deshmukh play triple roles. South siren Tamannaah (who made her Bollywood debut with Himmatwala) was already signed to play the female lead opposite Saif and now with Bipasha on board, the main cast has been locked. The film is expected to go on floors in September.
After much brainstorming, producer Vashu Bhagnani and director Sajid Khan finally zeroed in on Bipasha as she suited the part and also shares a comfortable vibe with both - Saif and Riteish.
It will be interesting to see if Sajid has planned three avatars for Bipasha as well.
Despite repeated attempts, Sajid Khan and Bipasha Basu remained unavailable for comment.
