Vidya Balan with Aamir in Yash Raj film?

There is a strong buzz in the industry circles that Vidya Balan has been signed by Yash Chopra for his directorial next. It is the same project which was supposed to star Aamir Khan along with Preity Zinta. But while, Aamir is still being non-committal about being approached for the project, other news making the rounds is that Preity has been replaced by Vidya Balan.

Sources are claiming that it is a love story spanning ages, but is completely different from Chopra’s last directorial effort Veer Zara. Incidentally, Veer Zara also had its lead pair Shahrukh Khan and Preity Zinta playing characters both young and old. Sources further claim that Yash Chopra intends to begin this film by early 2010 and make it a grand Diwali 2010 release. He will be finally directing a film after 6 years since he directed Veer Zara (2004).


While there has been no confirmation from both Vidya Balan or Yash Raj Films yet, we can only imagine right now what crackling chemistry it would be of Aamir and Vidya, and to top it all with romance king Yash Chopra directing it.

Preity Zinta’s double role in Yash Raj Next

Preity Zinta is said to have been signed by Yash Chopra for a double role in their forthcoming venture with Aamir Khan. The film will be directed by Chopra Senior himself. Sources reveal that Aamir’s role spans a lifetime as he ages throughout the film, akin to a Veer Zaara-type character.

Preity, who made her way into the hearts of millions with her dimpled smile in a popular confectionery commercial, has now proved her acting prowess to critics and audiences alike with a hard-hitting performance in Videsh.

Now no one can say that she is just a pretty doll with a sweet face and a modicum of acting talent. The actress has finally shown that no one can take her lightly. Preity has established herself as one of the best actresses today.

A look back at her career beginning in 1998 with Kya Kehna, all the way to her latest Main Aur Mrs Khanna, the actress has been playing her cards safely in her journey to the top. With no godfather in the industry, she has diligently carved a niche for herself.
