Ever since Rohit Shetty announced his next film ‘Sooryavanshi‘ starring Akshay Kumar in the lead, rumours surrounding the film’s lead actress has been doing the rounds. Several names had cropped up and one of them is our one and only Katrina Kaif. While the makers of the film are yet to announce the name of its female lead, the latest buzz suggests that Katrina has already shot with Akshay Kumar for the film’s first poster.

The pairing of Akshay and Katrina has worked wonders in all of their previous films. Together this jodi has given the audience some memorable films like ‘Namastey London’ and ‘Welcome’ to name a few. Now neither Katrina nor Rohit Shetty has confirmed the news, but a  report in DNA states that Katrina has even shot for the film’s poster which means she is indeed a part of ‘Sooryavanshi’.

Interestingly both ‘Sooryavanshi’ and Salman Khan’s ‘Inshallah’ are vying for the same release date i.e Eid in 2020. So if Katrina is really a part of Rohit Shetty’s film then that would mean a clash with good friend Salman at the box office. Earlier commenting on his film’s clash with ‘Inshallah’, Rohit had said, “Abhi Ek Saal Baaki Hai, Yeh Wali Eid Toh Jaane De, Phir Agli Eid Ka Sochenge (There is still one year, let this Eid pass. Then we will think of next Eid).

So perhaps either of the films might push or pre-pone their release date. Meanwhile, if the reports of Katrina sharing the screen space with Akshay turns out to be true then it would be a piece of great news for their fans.
