Neil to essay SRK’s role in Baazigar remake?

Last seen in a cameo in ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’ opposite Priyanka Chopra, Bollywood actor Neil Nitin Mukesh’s career did not quite take off the way it was expected to after a promising start in ‘Johnny Gaddar’. Undeterred by box-office results, the actor is once again back to action with ‘Players.’

According to multiple media reports, director duo Abbas Mustan have signed Neil for a three-film-deal, including his upcoming action thriller ‘Players’, which is slated to hit theaters on January 6, 2012.

If sources are to be believed, after watching Neil’s acting in the film, the makers are considering Neil for SRK’s character in the remake of 1993 blockbuster film ‘Baazigar’.

A friend of the actor revealed, “Abbas-Mustan, after seeing Neil’s bad boy act in the rushes of their forthcoming film have decided to cast him in their remake of Baazigar.”

Sonam almost missed the promotional event of ‘Mausam’

Apparently, when the promotion of Pankaj Kapoor’s ‘Mausam’ was taking place, as organized by the film’s producers Sheetal Talwar and Vistaar Religare Film Fund, Sonam found herself stuck-up with the shooting of Abbas Mustan’s ‘Players’.

She requested the director duo to allow her a restricted off and promised to be back on sets after attending the event. Well, Sonam did return, and shot till late night!
