It is the season of Fresh Pairing, and if sources are to be paid any heed to, then we will witness another Fresh Pair on the block in terms of, Kangana Ranaut and Imran Khan.

After having won hearts by her performance in ‘Queen’, Kangana is scoring too well on the acting radar. And it is the reason that this curly-haired star is very quickly becoming every director’s choice. Recently, Kal Ho Na Ho director, Nikhil Advani, met Kangana and offered her ‘Katti Batti’. And guess what? She loved the role after hearing out the script, and she immediately said yes!

Imran Khan was already finalized for Katti Batti, which was previously titled ‘Saali Kutiya’, and the hunt for the lead actress was on. And Kangana is said to fit the bill perfectly. But even Ileana D’cruz is said to be a part of this project!

We are quite uncertain whether it is a two heroine film or Kangana will be replacing Ileana? Final confirmations are yet to come.

The chocolate boy with cute looks, Imran Khan has been off the grid lately. Taking time off to be with his pregnant wife Avantika, Imran has been taking things nice and easy to enjoy some domestic bliss. However, sources confirm that Imran is now back to work and will be cast in Nikhil Advani’s next project.

Nikhil Advani, the director who delivered hits like Kal Ho Na Ho and D-Day is very keen to cast Imran Khan as the leading man in his next project which is untitled. The director also is busy with another project, Hero, which will see the debut of Sooraj Pancholi, son of Aditya Pancholi.

The film which is said to carry some unique elements will have Ileana D’ Criz playing the female lead in all likelihood. However, there is no official confirmation yet on the rest of the cast.

Imran Khan had recently lent his voice to the Hindi version of Rio 2 for the character Blu.

The actor, who was last seen in films like Once Upon a Time in Mumbai Dobaara! And Gori Tere Pyaar Mein was unable to fare well with commercial success. His films have been performing very poor lately, the last hit being Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu with Kareena Kapoor. The films such as Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola and Bombay Talkies could not do much to this ceebrated nephew of Aamir Khan.

Hopefullly, the fatherhood and Nikhil Advani’s project should turn things around for Imran Khan.
