After rumors of Priyanka Chopra, Deepika being considered to star opposite SRK in Sajid Nadiadwala's rendition of Chetan Bhagat's 2 States , newcomer Asin has emerged victorious.
After her bagging Housefull 2, a film to be produced by Sallu's good friend Sajid Nadiadwala, Sajid has now chosen her over Priyanka and Deepika to act opposite SRK in the film.
With 2 States, Asin will become the first among her contemporaries, Katrina Kaif, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, Sonam Kapoor or Anushka Sharma to have worked with all the three big Khans of Bollywood.
Sajid Nadiadwala along with director Vishal Bhardwaj met Asin to discuss the story. Needless to say, the actress was more than excited.
Asin is already a part of Housefull 2 and hence she often featured in the discussions about the casting for 2 States. Sajid and Asin share a comfortable relationship and the actress was excited to be a part of the film, which not only features Shah Rukh but also will be directed by Vishal Bhardwaj. She is currently out of town but is expected to sign the papers as soon as she lands back in city.
Apparently even Vidya Balan too was being considered for the role after Priyanka Chopra, since the female lead in the film is South Indian. Asin fits the bill for the same reason. The actress who is reportedly quite close to her “Ready” co-star “Salman Khan will now work with his arch-rival Shahrukh Khan. Leaving Sallu angry or not, this seems to be a wonderful career move for the south Indian beauty.
