Prachi gets role opposite Fardeen in thriller

Television hottie Prachi Desai has accepted a role initially written for sex-kitten Bipasha Basu.

Talented filmmaker duo Abbas and Mustan have signed the gorgeous girl for their next untitled venture, which will be directed by Rumi Jaffrey. According to a source, “”Bipasha was selected for the role initially. However, her enthusiasm waned when she heard that Rumi Jaffrey was directing it, thereafter she backed out and flew to Miami to be with John Abraham who is shooting there for Karan Johar’s Dostana.”

Abbas and Mustan have not confirmed the signing, but their secretary Pappu has said, “Yes, we have Prachi on board.” Prachi herself has also confirmed this, saying, “I am doing the film with Abbas-Mustan. I have finished shooting for Farhan Akhtar’s Rock On.”

Prachi will be paired opposite hot and talented actor Fardeen Khan in this action flick.
