Jacqueline Out,Deepika In Kick 2?

Are Salman Khan and Deepika Padukone finally coming together in Kick 2? Rumours floating out of producer Sajid Nadiadwala’s production house insist that the never-before casting is indeed being crystallized.

Says a source in the know, “If you remember, Deepika was the first choice for Kick . But somehow it didn’t work out. Jacqueline was brought in and Kick changed the course of her career.”

For Kick 2 Deepika’s role is being carefully developed.

“Deepika can’t play just a typical Salman heroine. Her role has to be as powerful as Salman’s. Sajid is working on it,injecting heft into the female lead,” says a source close to Sajid Nadiadwala.

Too many misses as far as this much-coveted pair is concerned. Deepika and Salman have nearly come together on several occasions. This time for Kick 2 everyone concerned is most eager to make the untried jodi happen.

Fingers crossed.
