Farah Khan is prepared to reunite with Akshay Kumar and that too twice over. Okay, so before you begin wondering whether this development is for a movie then hold directly to your thoughts. While she goes ahead full pace towards bringing Happy New Year with Shah Rukh Khan on floors, there are other professional commitments where her association with Akshay Kumar would come in useful. This can be for Shirin Farhad Ki Nikal Padi and Joker, promos of which might hit the screen together with Rowdy Rathore.
"It is very some coincidence since both films feature Farah somehow or the opposite. While she is the producer of Joker which have been directed by Shirish Kunder, Shirin Farhad.... would mark her debut as a number one lady. Now that both films are approaching the finishing mark, it was felt that Rowdy Rathore could be just the fitting platform to introduce these films to the audience", informs a source.
What further made it possible is the truth that Rowdy Rathore is a co-production of UTV and Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Since UTV could also be backing Joker while Shirin Farhad.... is a Bhansali production, it turned out to be a mutually beneficial exercise to connect the film's First Look with Rowdy Rathore.
"After the super-success of Housefull 2, Akshay's stocks have zoomed up in an enormous way. His Rowdy Rathore is now ready to be huge in addition and identical to Housefull 2 that is now prepared to hit the 100 crore mark, even Rowdy Rathore should comfortably accomplish that feat. No wonder, many upcoming films wish to associate themselves with the film because if the commitment around attaching the promos is agreed upon, long stay of Rowdy Rathore would help added eyeballs for the promos as well", the source continues.
However, as of now it's Joker and Shirin Farhad... that have turned out to be early birds and already booked their place. This development signifies that Farah could be enjoying an extraordinary double bill where a movie personality would witness the launch of her acting in addition to production assignment.
We tried to contact Farah but she was unavailable for comment. Perhaps she wants the name of the game to stick on for just a little longer.
