Shah Rukh-Kajol to romance again

DHAKA: Yes, you heard that right! The famous DDLJ jodi, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol are to be paired up again onscreen.

Karan Johar has reportedly decided to cast the duo in his next romantic film, reports DNA.

The last time the two came together was in 2010 in filmmaker Karan Johar’s ‘My Name Is Khan’.

The film was critically acclaimed and won a lot of awards, says the daily.

Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol are one of the most sizzling onscreen couples in Bollywood and the film will be much-awaited reunion of the two.

A source told the daily, ‘Karan always works on one film at a time and he has just come back from Thailand after having wrapped up portion of his home production. Though he hasn’t announced his next film, it will most probably be with Shah Rukh.’

‘But the film won’t be announced before the end of the year and won’t begin rolling before early next year, the reason being SRK’s dates.’

‘He’s busy with his upcoming films with Yash Chopra and Farah Khan’s Happy New Year. He can only give dates in early 2013 now.’

Karan Johar has always considered Kajol his lucky charm and the actor has given cameo appearances in his films too.

This time around, Kajol will be seen as a lead opposite her favourite onscreen partner, Shah Rukh Khan.

Of late Kajol is also seen back in shape! If the film works out, this will be Kajol’s first project after the birth of her son, Yug.
