Anushka Sharma opposite Aamir Khan in ‘Peekay’

In this generation’s line of actresses, it is arguable that Anushka Sharma shines as one of the brightest. With commendable performances in her short career, Sharma has a great line-up of movies to come. It has also��been confirmed that she will be romancing Aamir Khan in Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘Peekay’. However, there were initial date clashes with this project and Anurag Kashyap’s ‘Bombay Velvet’ in which Sharma will be seen with Ranbir Kapoor.

As a source confirmed to Hindustan Times, Kashyap and Hirani’s similarity in choice was clear, “The logic is simple: in that age group, she is the most talented actor in Bollywood. You don�۪t have an option as good as Anushka”.

The ‘Bombay Velvet’ insider also added, “There were definitely some date issues she was dealing with. That�۪s why the BV makers weren�۪t 100 per cent sure that she would sign. But now that the film has been pushed to next year, she can easily fit both in her schedule. She had already been confirmed for Peekay”. In contrast, Kashyap has said an official announcement should be waited upon before audiences cast assumptions as to who the leading lady is for ‘Bombay Velvet’.

‘Peekay’ should go on the floors at the end of the year and ‘Bombay Velvet’ will now commence next year. BizAsia wishes Sharma well with both films which are sure to define her further in the film fraternity.
