Bipasha to romance Madhavan


Director Ashiwni Chaudhary has managed a casting coup of sorts, roping in bong beauty Bipasha Basu and ‘Tanu Weds Manu’ actor R. Madhavan in his next venture.

This will be Bips and Maddy’s first movie together. According to the sources, the makers of the film approached Madhavan right after the success of TWM. “He quite liked the idea and was also excited when he got to know that Bipasha was being approached to play the female lead. Though they have known each other, the actors have never worked together,” informed the source.

Audiences have always liked Madhavan in romantic movies be it ’Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein’ or his recent ‘Tanu Weds Manu’ but Bipasha failed to woo audiences in all her earlier rom-com movies. Her stints in the past remained unnoticed but this time around she will be a part of a full fledged love story.

Although she had worked in a romantic caper before this, which was ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno’ but there, she was not the main female protagonist. She had to share the screen with Deepika Padukone and Minissha Lamba. But this time she has bagged the lead role.

The new report suggests that the film will start rolling from the month of July. “Ashwini will finish the shoot of this film before he moves on to direct Ghayal Returns. If things go as planned, it will release early next year,” the source informed. Director Ashiwni Chaudhary, who is traveling abroad right now, could not be contacted for comment.
