Model Anushka Sharma will play Shah Rukh Khan’s leading lady in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi which is being directed by Aditya Chopra. Yash Chopra, Chairman, Yash Raj Films, Thursday announced that the 19-year-old from Bangalore has been selected to play the female lead.

‘We were looking first and foremost for someone who could truly embody the spirit of small town Punjab and we know we have found her in Anushka,” said Yash Chopra.

And while she has no previous acting experience, we have seen that unique spark in her that makes us confident that she will be a standout even opposite Shah Rukh,’ he added.

One of the oldest B-town residents who had all-of-a-sudden become an ‘instant-NRI’, all thanks to her racist loud cries and howls in ‘Big Brother’ is back to where she belongs- Bollywood. Well, no prizes for guessing that we are indeed talking about Shilpa Shetty, who is back to Bollywood (’via Miami’) to ‘nibhaao’ her Dostana, a Tarun Mansukhani directed and John-Abhishek-Priyanka starrer, in which she features in an item number. The snap features her in the bike-track with professional bikers, which is supposed to be the highlight of the song!
