But his makers are keen on Amy Jackson for his next project!

It appears to be a toss-up between Nargis Fakhri and Amy Jackson for Nikhil Advani's film with UTV that stars Arjun Rampal.

Casting for the project is currently on. Sources state that the makers are keen on Amy, but Arjun suggested the name of Nargis instead.

Says an insider, "For one of the female roles, they were considering Amy Jackson. But then suddenly the name of Nargis Fakhri cropped up."

After her disastrous debut in Rockstar, Nargis has been largely doing endorsements while no films have been announced with her. While Amy, who will be seen with Prateik in Ek Deewana Tha, has done a Tamil film Madrasapattinam earlier.



Adds the source, "Both the girls have a similar background of modelling. The producers felt Amy was apt. As Arjun has a good rapport with the production house, having worked in Rajneeti earlier and currently Heroine, he suggested Nargis's name."

Nargis's spokersperson, however, maintains, "We don't have anything to say right now." While Arjun states, "That's not true." Adds the insider, "Nargis was the name that tossed up. A final decision has yet to be taken."
