Reportedly, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone were also offered the movie but they declined after signing Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Bajirao Mastani’.

There were rumours that Salman Khan and Kareena would be part of the film but the 33-year-old actress has rubbished such reports. “Will Salman be part of ‘Shuddhi’? It is all created by you all (media). ‘Shuddhi’ is shelved. Karan is working on ‘The Warrior’ remake I think… with Sidharth Malhotra and Akshay Kumar. This is what Karan said. It will start in August,” Kareena said.

The actress who is at Ramoji Film City to shoot for Rohit Shetty’s next, ‘Singham Returns’, starring Ajay Devgn. Kareena said she shares a good bond with Johar, contrary to reports that all is not well between them. “Karan and we meet often. He loves to party. He is a very good friend. He is a brother to me and we share a deep bond. He is somebody who can be there for you,” Kareena said.
