Nikhil Advani wanted to cast John and Vidya together?

The awesome duo shared wonderful chemistry in Nikhil Advani ’s flop flick Salaam-e-Ishq . The actors were seen as love-dovey couple in the film and their sparkling off-screen chemistry was talk of the town.

Now, since Bhansali, who is producing, is not in a mood to sign Harman Baweja , he has roped in John to play one of the leads. And the film has Vidya Balan in a pivotal role. So again, the two actors could be seen sharing screen space in the film.

But the rumours of John-Vidya liaison has troubled John’s lovely girlfriend Bipasha Basu enough. In fact last year, when director Nikhil Advani wanted to cast John and Vidya together, an insecure Bipasha didn’t allow her beau to sign the film because of Vidya. The lady must have had sleepless nights hearing the news of their alleged link-ups. So it might happen again that Bipasha prods John to say no to a project with Vidya again.


As the things stand now, John’s name is finalized for the project. Chenab Gandhi will be directed by Vibhu Puri who was Sanjay’s assistant for many years. It’s a period film tracing the life of legendary freedom fighter Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan who was famous by the name Chenab Gandhi. Amitabh Bachchan will essay the character of Chenab Gandhi in the film.
