A number of top Bollywood male stars such as Shahid Kapoor and Ranveer Singh will share screen space with their contemporaries such as Shah Rukh Khan and Said Ali Khan in their upcoming films.
What do Andaz (1949), Sholay (1975), Dostana (1980), Andaz Apna Apna (1994) and Karan Arjun (1995) have in common? They are all two-hero films that did well at the box office. Casting two big heroes in a movie has been a hit formula for Bollywood film-makers since the ’40s, and the trend continues to work even now.
Deepika Padukone is set to work in a two-hero movie for the first time. Film-maker Sanjay Leela Bhansali will apparently rope Ranveer Singh to play emperor Alauddin Khilji, the second ruler of the Khilji dynasty, in Padmavati. For the role of Deepika’s husband, reports about Shah Rukh Khan or Shahid Kapoor have been doing the rounds, but there has been no official confirmation from the makers yet.
