Director Rohit Shetty, who can be working with Shah Rukh Khan in his next film Chennai Express, has said he's yet to zero-in at the leading actress for the movie.
"It is just too early...we haven't yet decided. We're looking ahead to Bol Bachchan to release. So till July end we won't finalise. After that we are going to soak up a decision on that," Rohit said.
Chennai Express is a romantic film with Shahrukh within the lead. Though the lead actress has not yet been finalised, rumours are rife that Deepika Padukone or Kareena Kapoor could be roped in for the film. Kareena and Shahrukh were paired opposite one another in Asoka (2001) and Ra.One (2011), while Deepika made her acting debut opposite Khan in Om Shanti Om (2007). Chennai Express is slated to be a complete commercial film in "Rohit style". It's the story a few man who travels from Mumbai to Rameshwaram and what all happens in the course of the journey. Meanwhile, Shetty's Bol Bachchan, starring Ajay Devgn, Abhishek Bachchan, Asin and Prachi Desai, is about to release on July 6. It's inspired by the 1979 comic flick Golmaal.
On similarities between Golmaal and Bol Bachchan, Shetty said, "YOU'LL HAVE TO be patient the film and tell me." Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is ready to recreate his famous entry scene within the song My Name is Anthony Gonsalves for Bol Bachchan. The song in his hit movie Amar Akbar Anthony has showed Big B coming out of a life-sized egg. The makers have recreated the scene for title track video of Bol Bachchan. The 69-year-old actor has lent his famous baritone for the track and the song may also feature a few of his evergreen iconic dialogues from the film. "He has sung the song...we had a good time doing it," Shetty said.
