Saif and Ileana’s romantic Jodi for Uzma Ahmed’s biopic?

Bollywood stars Saif Ali Khan and Ileana D’Cruz worked for the first time together in Happy Ending. Their endearing romance and friendship were loved by the viewers and they were waiting to see their pairing again on the big screen.

Now, as per reports in a tabloid, both might star in Uzma Ahmed’s biopic where Ileana will be essaying the so-called role. Rumour has it, Saif has been approached to play the male lead. Talking about it, the director of the film Shivam Nair stated to the daily, “Yes, we are in talks with Saif. We are in the final stages of scripting and then, we will take the final call. Saif will be the main male lead if he says yes.”

He further said, “Along with Uzma’s story, our story is also about a diplomat in the Indian embassy and the Union Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj. The character is of an Indian diplomat who’s there in Pakistan, and how he handles the whole case. When the girl is inside the Embassy, he is the one helping and taking care of her. We only know about Uzma and her story. People don’t know much about the role of this diplomat.”

Nair also said, “It’s a positive role. That’s the major part of the story. The diplomat and the girl (to be rescued) are the lead roles.”

Shivam revealed that Saif’s brother-in-law Kunal Kemmu was the one who suggested his name for the role. Talking about it, the filmmaker said, “Saif already knows about the idea. I have worked with Kunal earlier so I know him well and I suggested the idea to him. He knows Saif well so he briefed him about the film.”
