On May 25, TOI had reported that Sajid Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez were separated. A week later, the rain has had its first collateral damage. The 28-year-old Sri Lankan beauty has been replaced by Raaz 3 actress Esha Gupta Sajid's next movie. The film is tentatively titled Humshakal star Saif Ali Khan and Ritesh Deshmukh in the male leads. There have been unconfirmed reports that the film is inspired by the 1982 rib-tickler Angoor.
Rubbing salt in the wounds pain Jacqueline, Sajid has wasted no time in signing up for your Himmatwala heroine Tamanna for the other female lead. "Actually, there are three girls in the film. The third will be finalized soon," said a source close to the development.
Explain what led to the dismissal of the film Jacqueline, the source said, "Sajid and Jacqueline had no interest in working together. They may work in the future in some other movie. While they may have separated amicably, it is difficult have a good working relationship so soon.
'Sajid even know the parents of Jacqueline in October last year and were very close to getting married. "
There is perhaps another reason why Jacqueline lost in the paper, which until recently had been intended for her. According to reports the actress does not share a good camaraderie with Ritesh.
As for Esha, Sajid apparently was impressed with his talent, which was exhibited in Jannat 2, Raaz 3 and Chakravyuh. That helped tip the scales in your favor.
However, this development should not be a setback for Jaqueline, to be seen with Salman Khan in Kick.
When contacted, Esha and Sajid both declined to comment on the story.
