Priyanka-Abhishek in ‘Dostana’ director’s next???

Tarun Mansukhani is very keen on roping in Priyanka Chopra and Abhishek Bachchan in his next directorial for Dharma, but there’s one thing that has to be sorted out before the cast is actually finalized.. He has to get Priyanka Chopra and the film’s producer Karan Johar back on talking terms.

Though reports state that Priyanka and Johar are now talking to each other and that their differences have cleared up, things are still a little shaky on both sides.

Says a source, “Tarun is very keen to cast Priyanka and Abhishek Bachchan for the new film that he is directing for Dharma. Whether he actually succeeds in breaking the final communication barriers between Karan Johar and Priyanka after her explosive ‘cupcake allegations’, would depend entirely on how generous Karan chooses to be with people who have offended him in the past.”

Meanwhile, Karan doesn’t interfere in the directors choice of film titles and casting.

“Karan has apparently told Mansukhani that it’s the director’s call to cast whoever he wants. However, whether that translates into getting Priyanka back into the Dharma fold, remains to be seen,” added the source.

The influential guy that KJo is, we seriously think Priyanka should patch up with him.

Priyanka is not eyeing Satyagraha

Priyanka Chopra was in for a surprise when she woke up to the news making rounds around her being interested in doing Satyagraha. While the actress is hardly aware about what the film actually deals with, it has been claimed that she recently sent feelers to director Prakash Jha and expressed her interest in doing the film.

"This is untrue", informs a close associate, "Priyanka has most definitely not approached Prakash Jha for any film. She is currently neck deep into shooting for Krrish 3. Moreover her international album is about to be released as well and she is making frequent trips between India and U.S.A. for that. There are a couple of projects already in the anvil. In between this all, where is the time to get committed to another film?"

It was also being reported that while Prakash Jha had confirmed Kareena Kapoor for the film, he is now having another choice opening up in the form of Priyanka.

"That's entirely his call. If he considers Priyanka for any film, she would be most delighted as she obviously holds the director in very high regard. However the truth is that for Satyagraha, Priyanka is definitely not in contention", a trade source adds, "She has to promote Barfi! and then also wrap up Zanjeer. In any case, she is not bothered by such rumours making the rounds. She would rather concentrate on work than react to such baseless speculations."
