Hrithik Roshan’s heroine unconfirmed

The speculations about who will play the female lead opposite Hrithik Roshan in the remake of the 1982 hit Satte Pe Satta has reached ludicrous proportions, what with any and every actress’ name being thrown around.

First it was Deepika Padukone. And truth be told, Farah Khan was keen to cast her for Hema Malini’s role, as Hrithik and Deepika have never come together on screen. However, that did not work out because Deepika had no dates to spare until 2021.

Katrina Kaif was also being considered, as was Kriti Sanon. But sources close to the project reveal that Farah may even sign a debutante opposite Hrithik, rather than a tried and tested pairing.'

Could that newcomer be Miss India Manushi Chillar, who has been seen in Farah Khan’s company? Only one way to find out.
