Rumours are rife that model Karishma Kotak, lately seen in
TV reality show ‘Bigg Boss 6’, has wangled a prized lead opposite Salman Khan
in his brother Sohail Khan`s next production to go on the floors. But Sohail
has denied the rumours. "I am quite fed up of the rumours. First the media
gives my film titles like `Sher Khan`, then `Radhe`, then `Mental`. Now they`ve
even given me a leading lady. There are so many rumours about my film, I`ve
given up!" said Sohail. He said the Karishma conection to his film is
completely baseless, and added: "I have shortlisted a few leading ladies.
I`ll announce the (name of the) girl next week.

Karishma is a half-British, half-Indian a la popular actress
Katrina Kaif.
"Perhaps people close to her feel the British-Indian
mix of Katrina would work in Karishna Kotak`s favour. We don`t know what she
thinks or where the story of being signed for Sohail`s film opposite Salman
came from. But the truth is, there`s no truth to it," says a close friend
of Salman`s.
In fact at the moment, Sohail`s home production is pushed
ahead by a bit. Salman`s dates in 2013 are being worked out for Sohail`s film,
Boney Kapoor`s "No Entry Mein Entry" and Sajid Nadiadwala`s
"Kick". Leading ladies for all three are on the verge of being locked
in.
But Kotak is said to be nowhere in consideration.
To go back a bit, Salman, who hosts "Bigg Boss",
was seen to be a little extra kind towards the "soft-and-gentle"
Karishma.
"That`s it? That got rumours of her signing his next
film going?" Incidentally, Kingfisher model Angela Jonsson was the first
choice for Sohail`s film with Salman. She too is apparently not in the
reckoning any more.
