Salman's starring Sonakshi Sinha next with Akshay?

Salman's starring Sonakshi Sinha next with Akshay? During the shoot of Farah Khan’s film Tees Maar Khan, the idea of another film sprouted. Farah’s editor-husband planned Joker with Akshay Kumar in the lead, which the star will also co-produce. But here is the real problem? Who will play the female lead. Salman Khan has started pushing Sonakshi Sinha’s name.

The buzz has it that both Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone are in the running for the role.

If Kat has expressed her desire to be in the film to Akki, Deepika is the natural choice. The new twist is that Sallu is recommending Sonakshi; the starlet is the new ‘it’ thing in Bollywood and is already there for Sajid Nadiadwala’s Kick due to Sallu’s reference.

On the other hand, Deepika recently commented that she was never approached for Joker. So, who is in and who is out can take a bit long to sort out. Meanwhile, you enjoy the spicy rumours.

Salman Khan pair again with Sonakshi in Sajid Nadiadwala’s film 'Kick'

Salman Khan pair again with Sonakshi in Sajid Nadiadwala’s film 'Kick': One superhit film can change the fortunes of a star overnight in the film industry. Salman Khan, who is riding high on the super success of Dabangg is a man much in demand among producers and distributors nowadays.

The star would pair once again with Sonakshi Sinha in producer Sajid Nadiadwala’s film Kick, and the enterprising producer, we hear, has already become busy negotiating a deal with Eros Entertainment.

Not just that, rumours go that Nadiadwala has quoted a humungous amount of Rs. 75 crore for Kick if Eros wants to acquire the film.

The film will be an action thriller like Dabangg and will probably release around Eid next year. Considering that Salman’s previous two Eid releases (Wanted in 2009 and Dabangg in 2010) have hit bulls-eye at box office, Kick is likely to follow suit.

Though Sajid denies having discussed the whopping price with Eros, sources claim that a deal is in the works and may be signed as soon as the film’s script is finalized.

Sonakshi Sinha, Salman Khan's Lucky Pair: Salman Khan and Sonakshi Sinha  seem to be ‘lucky pair’ for the film makers.  Just a day before the release of his first film with Sonakshi Sinha, Salman Khan has signed another film with the much talked-about debutante.

On Thursday afternoon, producer Sajid Nadiadwala drove down to the Sinhas’ bungalow to sign Sonakshi opposite Salman in the Hindi remake of the Tamil blockbuster Kick, which Shirish Kunder will be directing for Nadiadwala.

Salman was not only keen to sign Kunder as director, he also strongly recommended Sonakshi for the female lead, which Ileana had performed in the Telugu original.

Confirming the news, Sajid Nadiadwala says, “It was Salman who was very keen that I sign Sonakshi opposite him in Kick. I became a hundred percent sure of her after I saw her in Dabangg. She and Salman make a great pair. I am very happy to be working with Shatruji’s daughter. He has worked extensively for my banner. In fact, I’ve a picture at home with Shatruji when he was shooting for our banner in Bhai Ho To Aisa. I was 6 at that time.”

Says Sajid emotionally, “This is the first time I’ve gone to someone’s house to sign an actor. Everyone comes to my office. But Sonakshi is Shatrughan Sinhaji’s daughter.”

Elated by the overwhelming response received by the film, both from the masses and the classes, film producer Arbaaz Khan told Mid-Day, "A sequel is on the cards. And why just a sequel? The film and the main characters have the potential to be carried forward through various channels."
The sequel will likely be set in Mumbai, not small town Uttar Pradesh.

Abhinav Kashyap is being retained as helmer. Sonu Sood, who got rave reviews for playing a corrupt politician in the film, will come back in a double role. He will have a twin brother in the new city.

"Salman was the most enthusiastic at his Eid party. When he suggested we do the sequel, we started discussing it very seriously," said Sood.
