Arjun chooses Nargis over Amy

Is he latest one to be smitten by the ‘Rockstar’ babe?

Arjun Rampal

It looks like Nikhil Advani’s untitled project starring Arjun Rampal has hit the skids now as the director and the hero of the project can’t decide who the leading lady should be.

Rumour has it that Nikhil wanted Amy Jackson who previously acted in the regional film ‘Madrasapattinam’ and will be in seen in the Prateik-starrer ‘Ek Deewana Tha,’ to romance super hottie Arjun Rampal in his upcoming movie. Arjun on the other hand, still basking in the appreciation he got for SRK’s ‘Ra.One’ was particular that the ‘Rockstar’ heroine Nargis Fakhri should be paired opposite him.

A source said that Arjun’s demand seemed unreasonable because Nargis’ debut performance in ‘Rockstar’ was panned by both critics and the audience. The source also added that casting Nargis wasn’t a good idea as the actress had not signed on any films after ‘Rockstar’ which only proved that she wasn’t in demand.

Apparently, Arjun put in a good word about the actress to UTV Motion Pictures, the producers of the film. And no doubt, it is believed that Arjun may have his way because he has had good relations with UTV in the past, working in films such as ‘Rajneeti’ ‘Heroine’ and ‘We are Family.’
Now English model Amy Jackson may be the latest rage in T’town with two films already in her kitty but it looks like it takes a woman of South Asian origin to impress the ‘Ra.One’ Arjun!
