Kareena Kapoor not a part of “Chennai Express”!

Rohit shetty has confirmed that Kareena Kapoor being cast opposite Shahrukh Khan in “Chennai Express” is rumors and says that the leading lady is yet to be finalized.

“I haven’t approached kareena,she knows what i am making.I might do something else with Kareena,” Rohit shetty told PTI in an interview.

The buzz that revolves around the movie now is that Deepika Padukone will feature opposite SRK in the movie.

“In 10 days time everyone will come to know who our heroine is” he said.

Chennai express is Rohit’s first movie in which he has left out his close buddy Ajay Devgan. Ajay has been a part of all the eight films rohit has directed and the director says that chennai express should be an exception.

Shetty also quashed out rumors of ajay not being a part of the film because of a dispute.

He said “Ajay and i are working together on singham2 and there is no reason why are bond of friendship should
be questioned”.

The shooting of chennai express will go on floors from mid september and the movie is set to release
by mid 2013.

All rohit shetty fans have to watch out for this one as chennai express is going to be a total commercial-”Rohit shetty style”,where
one would get to see his signature style like cars blowing up.

“I do all these things (blowing up cars and all) for children as they enjoy it. All this will certainly happen in chennai express..but
not blowing up trains”,he chuckled.

The movie is about a man who travells from Mumbai to Rameshwaram and the incidents take place during this journey.

“The whole movie is not about the train journey,it is something else as well and there is a reason why the name of the
film is chennai express.like only 15 to 20 mins of the film is in the train,it’s not like the whole movie is filmed in the train.
I can’t talk much about the movie as it is too early”, Rohit said.

Meanwhile Rohit Shetty is on the seventh heaven because of the success of his last venture, Bol Bachchan a romantic comedy.
