Sonakshi Sinha and Saif Ali Khan in Anurag Basu’s next?

There have been many speculations regarding the cast of Anurag Basu’s hit film ‘Life In A Metro’s sequel. From Rajkummar Rao to Kareena Kapoor Khan, many Bollywood biggies have been considered for the same.

Going by DNA’s early report, Kareen Kapoor Khan was the first choice for the female lead but the actress has two big films in her kitty and due to which she had to decline Anurag’s film. A source told DNA, “Bebo has already signed Karan Johar’s ‘Good News’, which rolls around the same time, so she had to decline Anurag’s offer. Then, Kangana Ranaut was approached for the same. She decided to do his instead with Rajkummar Rao and told her mentor-director that she won’t be able to do this movie.”

Now, the makers are considering Sonakshi Sinha for the female lead. The source added, “She was given a narration and offered the role two weeks ago. The ‘Dabangg’ actress has signed on the dotted line.”

“They aren’t paired opposite each other but will have some scenes together,” the source stated. The duo will be sharing the silver screen for the second time after ‘Bullett Raja’ (2013).

The source also informed that stars like Rajkummar Rao, Abhishek Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu have already agreed to do the film.“Raj was the first to say yes to it. Soon afterwards, Abhishek also joined in and Taapsee gave her nod, too. If Sidharth Malhotra says yes, he will be paired opposite her,” the source concluded.
