Asin in Ashutosh Gowarikar film starring Abhishek

The lead pair of Ashutosh Gowariker’s next period venture, Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey, which is based on the Chittagong Uprising, is finally in place. We had earlier reported that Abhishek Bachchan will play the lead role as Surjya Sen. Now the buzz is that Gowariker has finalised Asin to play the female lead.





A source said, “This will be the first time that Abhishek and Asin will be paired opposite each other. The film’s first schedule will tentatively start around November 25.”

Ashutosh reportedly summoned Asin at his Khar office where he expressed his desire to cast her for this period drama.

Asin was so rejoiced that she gave an affirmative nod even before she heard the full narration of the script. She told Ashu that she has seen his previous films and was looking forward to working with him.

Unexpectedly beautiful Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who was supposed to work in this film at the first place is not a part of the project now. Does this have anything to do with motherhood?

Apparently, the forthcoming film will be produced by Gowariker along with PVR Pictures and not UTV who had produced his last three films.
