Sources close to Anees Bazmee's next directorial venture, Mubaraka, reveal that the actress was recently approached to play Arjun's love interest and she has shown interest in the project that also features Anil Kapoor.
Earlier, there was speculation about Parineeti Chopra playing protagonist, but she dismissed the rumours.
Says a source, "The makers were keen to cast a feisty actress and had a couple of names in mind. However, Sonakshi was on top of their list and they decided to get in touch with her. Bazmee met her last week for a script narration and she evinced interest."
Initially, the film was supposed to be helmed by Milap Zaveri with Abhishek Bachchan in the lead, but both the director and actor were replaced and the script was reworked. Anil and Arjun will portray their real-life relationship of chacha-bhatija for the first time.
Incidentally, Sonakshi shares a warm rapport with the veteran star despite her romacntic past. It was during the shoot for Arjun's home production, Tevar (2015), that the two grew close and started dating. They parted ways after the film released.
The source adds, "Although Sonakshi is yet to confirm her presence in Mubaraka, the makers are optimistic that she will say, yes."
Bazmee and Sonakshi remained unavailable for comment. The film is scheduled to go on floors by October and hit screens next year.
