Emraan Hashmi desperate to work with Kareena Kapoor

Mumbai, India: Kareena Kapoor had refused to take up Ekta Kapoor-Karan Johar’s next, starring Emraan Hashmi. Emraan was really disappointed on getting this piece of news.

Apparently, he wanted Kareena to be his leading lady. Emraan had even gone ahead and arranged for a special screening of Shanghai for the actress.

According to a source “Everyone thought Kareena would fit the bill. She was sent the script, which she liked, but she wasn’t able to sort out her dates for the film. Finally, the role went to Deepika Padukone. Kareena loved Shanghai and was interested in working with Emraan. But she couldn’t arrange her dates alongside Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next. Post her wedding in October, she will start shooting for the second schedule of the film.”
