Sonakshi was the original choice for K S Ravikumar’s ‘Rana’ oppsite superstar Rajnikanth, but has now been replaced by Deepika Padukone. The newest we hear is that the actress has opted out of Hassan’s bilingual movie in which she was to play his wife, due to her prior commitment to Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s venture, Rowdy Rathod.
Sonakshi was super thrilled about working with the Kamal when she signed ‘Vishwaroopam’. But unhappily, the shooting got postponed. This caused clashes with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Rowdy Rathore’ and so she had to opt out.
A source close to the actress revealed, “All her excitement is a thing of the past. She has determined that she is not doing Kamal Hassan’s movie. But trust me it wasn’t easy for her to take this decision. She has lost her first chance to work with Kamal Hassan. Hassan had serious creative differences with Selvaraghvan. Then, Hassan decided to direct the project himself. And consequently, there were delays in production. “
The source included, “Sonakshi was extremely professional, while explaining her case to Kamal Hassan Productions. There is no enmity between Kamal Hassan and Sonakshi.”
Hassan’s search for a substitute is already on and Deepika seems to be the likely candidate. Previously, Deepika had filled in for Sonakshi, who was the first choice for the Rajinikanth starrer, Rana. Seemingly, Rajinikanth was uncomfortable to pair up with his friend Shatrughan Sinha’s daughter.
