The casting of Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor appears jinxed. Any project announced with the Saawariya duo does not seem to get going.
Excuse me, please Shimit Amin was keen to cast the star kids for his next project for Yash Raj Films. As reported ('Same-aariya'; Hitlist, August 23), the Chak De! India director began work on the film with them. But it is reliably learnt that Sonam has now opted out.
Says a source, "Ranbir's name figured in Shimit's film from the beginning. Sonam was pencilled in on later. Both had given their consent but Sonam had second thoughts and excused herself."
Playing it cautious Adds the source, "No one wants to comment about Sonam's decision as it is a Yash Raj project and everyone including Shimit is sworn to confidentiality. More-over, in the past there was a buzz about Sonam being part of Aditya Chopra's Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi with Shah Rukh Khan, but ultimately things did not work out in her favour. As a result, both Sonam and her dad Anil Kapoor are being cautious.
Earlier, Sonam had refused debutant Vicky Singh's Mera Jahaan co-starring Ranbir. As reported, ('Deepika is the reason'(Hitlist, August 27), when Sonam realised that the film would also feature the Om Shanti Om actress, she played it safe. She didn't want to share screen space with Ranbir and his ladylove as the audience would look out for the chemistry between them.
According to Vicky, "Sonam opted out of Mera Jahaan saying that she did not want to do a two-heroine project."
All was well between childhood pals Ranbir and Sonam till Deepika walked into Ranbir's life. There was buzz for a while that the two were not on talking terms, however later they had patched up.
