There had been lots of shuffling, denying, confirming on this much talked project of Karan Johar - ‘Shuddhi’. After Hrithik Roshan, Aamir Khan, Ranveer Singh on hero’s side, then Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone for leading lady’s part here’s the latest twist in the casting tale... Buzz is that KJo has roped in to be the film’s man while Bebo will be his heroine.

Sources claim that Johar had Kareen as his first choice for ‘Shuddhi’ and speculations that they had some rift which made the actress to take exit from the project, are not true. Sources further stated that it was due to Hrithik’s health issues he opted out of the film and the team had to hunt for other actor. This in turn lead to clash of Kareena’s dates and there were allegations that she will be not part of the film. However, it seems now both KJo and Bebo have sorted out the issue and she will be very much part of ‘Shuddhi’ and has been cast opposite Salman.

If this is true then, Salman and Kareena come together again for third time post their films 'Main Aur Mrs.Khanna' and ‘Bodyguard’. And similarly the actor will work with KJo again after ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’.
