News : Sridevi opposite Big B in Balki’s next

Sridevi has chosen Balki’s next as her comeback Paad. She will be sharing screen space with the megastar of Bollywood, Amitabh Bachchan. If we remember the duo took the box office with storm when they starred in ‘Khuda Gawah’ in 1992. Balki and his wife Gauri are concentrating on the script for few months. Balki has given Big B challenging roles to play in films like, ‘Cheeni Kum’ and ‘Paa’ and he has done a fabulous job.

Balki said, "Yes, Sridevi will star in her film. And yes, I'm doing another project with Mr Bachchan. Like Cheeni Kum and Paa it is again an audacious idea that we are both hugely excited about. Will my film too star Sridevi? Why not? But at the moment it's too early to talk about the casting of my film."

Sridevi was supposed to re-launch by her husband Boney Kapoor but things did not materialize. In the film, she will essay the role of a lady who doesn’t understand English but married to a highly educated and aristocrat man. The films speaks about a mismatched marriage and how the married woman overcomes the hurdles.

A source close to the actress said, "Sridevi is very excited about her comeback. She has hit the gym and is regularly going to a nutritionist to get into shape."
