It's the grand mother of all casting coups! And no one's maintaining any 'Khamoshi' over it, either! Least of all UTV, with insiders setting the grapevine abuzz over the acting ensemble.
'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani' and 'Raajneeti' have fuelled the interest of filmmakers who want to captialise on the onscreen chemistry between Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor, and the romantic link up spotlighted by the scribe tribe.
Director Anurag Basu's 'Khamoshi' showcases Ranby Boy enacting a deaf and mute character, matching histrionics with a giddy Kat. And post interval… the screen will illumine a mentally challenged character essayed by… Priyanka Chopra!!
Reportedly, Priyanka was swiftly charmed by the script and assented to it, at once. Kat's puzzled industry folks by opting for the Basu flick over Imtiaz Ali's 'Rockstar', which also stars Ranby.
