The casting of Aanand L Rai’s next film with Shah Rukh Khan has been in the news for over a year now. The script, as we all know required two leading
ladies and ever since then speculations had shot through the roof as to which two actresses will it be.

When Ranbir Kapoor reportedly cheated on then-girlfriend Deepika with Katrina, he set the stage for the cold war between the two. Katrina was asked on Koffee With Karan if she was friends with Deepika, and her only response was an awkward silence. The two also go out of their way to ensure that they do not come face-to-face at public events

While Deepika Padukone playing one of them was finalized, Katrina Kaif, Sonam Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s names were being tossed around for the second leading lady.

But it’s now confirmed that Katrina Kaif has been roped in for it and she has also signed it. It’ll definitely be interesting to see how the two will work together. A source close to the project says, “Both the roles in Aanand’s film are extremely strong and totally different from the other. The team is planning a big announcement soon. The modalities are being worked out currently.”
