Imran Khan and Deepika together in Kunal Kohli's Next romantic comedy
Kunal Kohli is on a producing spree. He was keen on working with Imran for a long time, and he is glad that the hot newbie has agreed to be part of his film, which is a romantic comedy.
“Since her break-up with Ranbir, Deepika has resolved to prove herself as an actress and a star. She was very happy with the response to Love Aaj Kal. She signed this film because Kunal’s films have always had strong female characters, be it Rani in Hum Tum and TPTM or Kajol in Fanaa, and both of them were nominated at award ceremonies,” says a source.
He adds, “Deepika is thrilled about the films coming her way and wants to make the most of being in demand. She has started work on a Yash Raj film opposite Neil Nitin Mukesh, directed by Pradeep Sarkar, and she has bagged an Ashutosh Gowariker film opposite Abhishek Bachchan very early on in her career. She wants to give her 100% to these films. She is also excited about Karthik Calling Karthik and Housefull, which will release next year.”
About working with Ranbir’s friend Imran, our source says, ‘Imran, Ranbir and Deepika are very professional people, so there should not be any problems. Not many people know this, but Ranbir used to date Avantika Mallik, who is now engaged to Imran. If Ranbir and Imran can be best buddies, why can’t Deepika and Imran work together? ‘
The untitled film will go on the floors only next year. It will be directed by first-timer Danish Aslam, who has assisted Kunal on his movies like Fanaa and Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic and even on other films like Salaam Namaste, Ta Ra Rum Pum and Swades. Director Kunal Kohli confirmed the news of the pairing and said he was super-excited about the project which he is jointly producing with Big Pictures.
