Not Kriti Sanon, but Shraddha Kapoor to marry Sidharth Malhotra?

Yes, we know what you read in the headline, and we must tell you that what you just read is true and untrue in equal measures! Remember how we were amongst the first ones to break the story to you all that Bareilly Ki Barfi star Kriti Sanon will be paired up opposite Sidharth Malhotra in a Rom-Com that will be set in the Indian heartland? For those who want to dig deeper into that story, you can do so here, and for those who are already aware, well, there’s a twist in the tale.

Turns out, instead of Miss Sanon, the female lead of the film in question will be Malhotra’s Ek Villian co-star, Shraddha Kapoor, but, apparently, only after a handful of changes are made to the script, which are also reportedly underway.

Now, isn’t this a super exciting moment for all those who had been waiting for the Ek Villian pair to partner up yet again? For us, it surely is.

On the other hand, reportedly, Malhotra has already begun prepping for his part, which is that of a thug with a Bhojpuri accent that apparently falls prey to the very commonly-practiced ritual of Pakadua Vivah, in which the groom is kidnapped for the purpose of marriage.

Now, wouldn’t that be a fun space to explore, right?
