Sources say that Katrina Kaif will star opposite King Khan in his next film ‘Raees’
The latest buzz has it that Katrina Kaif has bagged the lead role in Shah Rukh Khan starrer, ‘Raees’. The film was recently in the news when Nawazuddin Siddiqui replaced Farhan Akhtar in the film. Now it has emerged that Katrina has apparently been offered the film.
A source says, “Katrina is in talks to play the lead role. They have been discussing it for a while now, but latest developments suggest that she has given them a go-ahead. This is will be her second film with Shah Rukh Khan after ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’.”
Another industry source adds, “Post ‘Bang Bang’, Katrina will be working on ‘Jagga Jasoos’ opposite Ranbir Kapoor, but it looks like this film will be pushed ahead. Besides these two films, she doesn’t have too much on her plate as of now, so a lead role in Raees is just right for her.”
When contacted, Katrina denied being offered the film. On the other hand, Rahul Dholakia, the film’s director, remained unavailable for comment.
