Shah Rukh Khan’s home production Ra.One, about a flying superhero. has finally found its leading lady – and she is Kareena Kapoor.
RadioSargam.com sources state that Kareena has agreed to be a part of this sci-fi venture from Red Chillies providing some major scripts changes are made. The source says, “Kareena has not starred opposite Shah Rukh since the 2001 flop Asoka. Since then she has only done item numbers with him. She was adamant that this film (Ra.One) would not be a failure as Asoka. Her thinking behind this is the viewer perception of her and Shah Rukh. She does not want to be known as ‘King Khan’s flop Queen’. Therefore, she wanted a much meatier part in this film.” It has now been said that Kareena’s character will also be flying in the skies and saving people.
Production will begin end of this year and continue well into 2009. The film is expected to be shot in USA. No release date has been finalised as of yet but Diwali 2010 is being rumoured as ‘the one’.
