Sara Ali Khan and
Janhvi Kapoor are now in the running to play Ranveer Singh’s heroine in the
upcoming Simmba.
Earlier Janhvi had
almost been finalised for the Rohit Shetty directorial, but now with the
Kedarnath fracas having hit Sara’s work front, a new window could have opened
for her.

Janhvi’s launch
vehicle Dhadak is being helmed by Dharma Productions and is slated for a July
20, 2018 release. Meanwhile,
there’s no clarity on when Sara’s debut film Kedarnath will hit screens. In
fact, if Sara clinches the lead in Simmba, Kedarnath might even lose the
distinction of being Saif’s daughter’s debut venture.

Interestingly,
Simmba is also helmed by Dharma Productions, so it’s quite possible that they
would want Sara, and not Janhvi (who already has a Dharma film in hand) for
their action-packed saga.
This development
comes hot on the heels of Kedarnath being stalled.
The high-handed and haughty Abhishek Kapoor (Gattu) has
deferred the release of Kedarnath, and we also told you last afternoon that he
will now have to battle it out in the Bombay High Court.

Obviously,
this has led to a lot many producers knocking at the lovely Sara Ali Khan’s
doors. She is, we hear, flooded with offers. The star kid is believed to
be a lava of talent and naturally, filmmakers are seizing this opportunity
(created by Gattu's foolishness) to have the credit of launching her. Will
Dharma Productions beat everyone to get Sara for Simmba?

It’s quite
possible since Sara has put her nose in the front. But will she reach the
winning post first? It’s a very hotly run race and we’re watching it with bated
breath.
