Parineeti Chopra to step into Emily Blunt’s shoes for ‘The Girl On The Train’ remake

Parineeti Chopra may have not been hugely successful in the past few years, but there is no doubt that the actress has immense potential. She has been one of the most looked-forward to actresses of the gen-next. Now, that she is trying to push the envelope, it seems that she has finally hit the bulls eye with a script that suits her real life persona to the core. Parineeti has been signed on for the official remake of the 2016 film, ‘The Girl On The Train’. She will step into the shoes of Emily Blunt.

For those who’ve come in late, ‘The Girl On The Train’ is a psychological thriller novel by British author Paula Hawkins released in 2015. The central character, which was played by Emily in the film, is someone who is quite confused about what’s real and what’s unreal. She is confused in her life and that’s one of the prime reasons why we believe Parineeti is the perfect choice for the role.
