Why Deepika Padukone as Heer onto Shahid Kapoor’s laps!: Ex of Kareena Kapoor and the present of Priyanka Chopra chocolate actor Shahid Kapoor has landed himself onto the lap of the leggy bimbo Deepika Padukone. Of course, they are not dating. It’s all for a film’s cause.
Director Sabbir Khan is making the rom com ‘Heer and Ranjha’ and he has roped in the vivacious Deepika Padukone for the role of Heer. Shahid had already been pulled in to do the honours for Ranjha.
Reasons why Deepika has been cast for Heer:
1. Sabbir was looking for someone who was young and dynamic and Deepika fitted the bill perfectly.
2. Besides, Deepika is also a tad vulnerable with her share of emotional depth; something that was required for her character.
3. Sabbir highly rates Deepika and considers her the finest actress of the new generation.
4. Besides, the pairing of Deepika and Shahid would be the first of such kind and is bound to trigger some interest.
5. And Deepika is not only a good actress but is also endowed with an unearthly beauty which makes her screen presence a riveting one.
The film, however, is some months away and would only go on floors in April, 2011.

The kabhi haan-kabhi naa Shahid-Priyanka prem kahani seems to be off again. It is learnt that this time, it was PC who called for a timeout. An insider denies that it was Shahid’s controlling behaviour that drove her away.
Apparently, the real reason she took the drastic decision is Deepika Padukone. The source says, “Pranks heard that while she was in Brazil shooting for Fear Factor, Shaks met Deepika twice and lost her cool.
Mimi (as he calls PC) confronted him. But he refused to say a word on anything related to Dippy. That finally did it.” Until they get back together again, then?

Shahid Kapoor and Deepika Padukone as Heer And Ranjha: After having cast the teenage heartthrob Shahid Kapoor as the ‘Ranjha’ in his next film titled Heer And Ranjha, director Sabbir Khan has pulled off a casting coup by roping in Deepika Padukone as ‘Heer’.
Sabbir said, “Once I finished scripting, I felt that the Heer’s part needed somebody, who is young and dynamic, as it’s totally an author-backed role. At the same time, that person should have vulnerability as well as emotional depth. With so much in mind, I just couldn’t see anybody beyond Deepika for the role, as I feel that she is one of the finest female actors among the Gen-Next’s brigade.”
Sabbir also added, “Casting this pair together was due to the fact that, this was one pair, which was everybody’s unanimous decision. To have Deepika as Heer and Shahid as Ranjha, the film is nothing short of being fantastic. Everybody is excited to see the pair together!”
Since it’s a romantic story being retold, music will play prominence in the film. Talking about the music of Heer And Ranjha, Sabbir reveals, “Music is indeed a very integral part of this film. And I am so very happy to have Pritam on board for it. There are 6 songs in the film. The core of the music will be romance… Music that will depict that it’s a love story, at the same time it’ll be contemporary. The music of this film will surely have lots of soul with a lot of modernity.”
The shooting of Heer And Ranjha will begin in April 2011.

Romantic Connection between Shahid Kapoor & Deepika Padukone?: A Mumbai tabloid is reporting that Priyanka Chopra called timeout on her relationship with Shahid Kapoor because he started to show inexplicable interest in Deepika Pudukone!
According to Mid Day, this happened while Priyanka was in Brazil shooting for Fear Factor.
Now considering that
Priyanka was in Brazil two months ago;
Priyanka and Shahid exchanged xoxo endearments on Twitter, with Priyanka addressing Shahid as Shaks, on September 7;
And Deepika has been going around with Kingfisher scion Siddharth Mallaya since August;
Gossip Mamu is constrained to call BS on the Mid Day story.
Mamu thinks the story is nothing more than a slow news day concoction.
Back in September there were reports that Shahid Kapoor and Deepika Padukone will feature in Sajid Nadiadwala’s Heer Ranjha but Sajid later denied saying no female lead has been yet finalized for the film.
