Abhishek Bachchan Has Got A New Leading Lady And She Has A Hrithik Roshan Connection
This actress has been signed opposite Abhishek Bachchan in Nishikant Kamat’s directorial, a yet-untitled thriller
Her Bollywood debut was a debacle but this actress has got a second chance in Bollywood. We are talking about Mohenjo Daro star Pooja Hegde.
Even the presence of bankable superstar Hrithik Roshan could not save the Ashutosh Gowariker directorial which made in into all the Worst Films Of 2016 lists.
But Pooja has now landed the part of the leading lady in Abhishek Bachchan’s next.

Nishikant Kamat has not zeroed in on a suitable title but now that he has locked in his lead pair, there may be an announcement soon.

The film will be produced by KriArj entertainment and Kyta Productions.
Apart from this project, KriArj entertainment has also tied up with John Abraham's production house JA Entertainment for a six movie deal and Anushka Sharma's Clean Slate Films.
Bollywood Star Abhishek Bachchan
Abhishek who has already read the script is pretty kicked about commencing work on the film.
The actor has mostly been seen in comedies recently with the Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone starrer Happy New Year, which released in 2014 being his comeback vehicle after an absence of a few years.
Nishikant on the other hand has a resume full of action flicks and thrillers including the 2015’s sleeper hit Drishyam starring Ajay Devgn and John Abraham starrer Force.
So we may get to see Pooja, who played a princess in her Bollywood debut, step into the modern world with a bang!
