Why did Kangna Ranaut ditch the Sarabjit Singh biopic?
Kangna Ranaut walks out of the Sarabjit Singh biopic after Hansal Mehta's unceremonious exit from the project; to work with him in another film After giving her nod to the Sarabjit Singh biopic last year, Kangna Ranaut has abruptly opted out of it. Industry sources say the actress took the decision following Hansal Mehta's unceremonious exit from the project. Says a source, "She had committed herself to the biopic when Hansal, in the capacity of a director-cum-co-producer, approached her last August. In fact, he was working on the script in the US last week. Suddenly, it was announced that Omung Kumar will direct the film. Once Hansal was ousted, Kangana too decided to abandon it." Kangna was supposed to play Sarabjit's sister, Dalbir Kaur, who fought a long but unsuccessful battle to free the death row prisoner from Pakistan after he was convicted on espionage charges. Now, Priyanka Chopra, who worked with Omung in the Mary Kom biopic, is apparently being considered for the role. The rights to the biopic are with writer-filmmaker Zeishan Quadri. The 'Queen' actress' spokesperson says, "Kangna was a part of Sarabjit biopic when Hansal Mehta was directing it. But now they are working on another subject." Hansal is evidently miffed with the makers. "Commenting on the bizarre Sarabjit episode that took place while I was out of the country will mean giving undue importance to people who are undeserving of any attention. Kangna and I are committed to working together. We will make an official announcement at the right time," he states.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan To Play Sarbjit’s Sister Dalbir Kaur In Omung Kumar’s Next
The biopic on Sarbjit Singh has created much intrigue. The industry and media have been waiting with anticipation to see who would play the role of Dalbir Kaur, Sarbjit Singh’s sister. The makers have announced that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will be playing the lead. Confirming the news, Producer of Sarbjit, Sandeep Singh says, “Yes it is true, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will be playing the role of Dalbir Kaur Singh. The role demanded a very strong character with a powerful aura, and Aishwarya perfectly fits the bill. She has given spectacular performances in all her previous movies and we are confident that she will do justice to this role. After producing Aligarh and co-producing Mary Kom, I realized that content driven films are my calling which further motivated me to take up Sarbjit, that will create an impact and inspire the audience as well as the youth worldwide.” Dalbir Kaur Singh was delighted to hear about the recent development. She says, “I am delighted to hear that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will be playing my character in the movie Sarbjit. She is a very fine actress with two decades of experience in Indian & International films and a very strong personality amongst the viewers as well. I have full faith in her and I am sure that she will do justice to my character and bring out the real emotions behind my struggle.” Sarbjit is to be directed by Omung Kumar and produced by Sandeep Singh, Zeeshan Quadri & Omung Kumar. The shoot of the film is scheduled to commence in October 2015 and will be released at Cannes in May 2016.

Farhan, Randeep, Fawad in running to play Sarabjit Singh in biopic
As many as four names are being thought upon as the perfect face to play the death row prisoner in Pakistan - Sarabjit Singh - in the biopic. sarabjit singh biopic, sarabjit singh movie, sarabjit singh biopic aishwarya rai, sarabjit singh aishwarya rai, sarabjit singh movie aishwarya rai, farhan akhtar, sarabjit singh farhan akhtar, randeep hooda, sonu sood, fawad khan Names like Sonakshi Sinha and Kangana Ranaut were being churned out for the role of Sarabjit's sister Dalbir Kaur and it finally went to former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Sarabjit Singh’s biopic has been in news for quite some time now, mainly because of its cast. Names like Sonakshi Sinha and Kangana Ranaut were being churned out for the role of Sarabjit’s sister Dalbir Kaur and it finally went to former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. The next actor to be chosen was to play Sarabjit himself. The latest we hear is that as many as four names are being thought upon as the perfect face to play the death row prisoner in Pakistan. According to a report published in DNA, “Omung already has three-four names in mind and they are not newcomers. The movie will capture Dalbir’s battle but it is not entirely about that. It is also about the struggles Sarabjit faced while in Pakistan. He will be talking to few actors and finally decide on someone in a few days.” The names are Farhan Akhtar, Randeep Hooda, Sonu Sood and Fawad Khan. With a successfull biopic like ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag’ to his credit, Farhan Akhatr seems to be the perfect choice for the role. The talented actor can also be expected to bring the emotional nuances to the character. Randeep Hooda, known for his restrained and mature acting, also can be a powerful contender for the role. Sonu Sood, popular more for his chiseled body and good looks, has performances like that of ‘Ek Vivah Aisa Bhi’ and ‘Jodha Akbar’ to his name. Fawad Khan has taken the nation by storm with his persona and acting in TV series ‘Humsafar’ and ‘Zindagi Gulzar Hai’ and Bollywood debut in ‘Khoobsurat’ and hence, can be a good choice for the movie. The movie is expected to go on floors this October and is slated to be premiered at the Cannes Film Festival next year.

^Great choice! Randeep has the rustic look needed for the role. His face can express the pain and anguish very well as seen in Highway.
Even though Aish is a decent actress who usually excels in emotional dramas but umm, don't you guys think she's too glamorous for this role? The real Dalbir Kaur is very ordinary looking, so I am really curious to see/know how the makers will present Aish in this film.

Plus, he wants to show the movie at Cannes and seeing as Aishwarya is a know face in thé rest of the world, she is the perfect fit.
