The first look of Salman Khan’s next film Ready is ready on the airwaves, and the buzz around town is already about Asin essaying the lead role in the film opposite Salman. In the original Telugu hit, Genelia D’Souza had played the part, but Asin has surprisingly replaced her in the Hindi remake.
Down south, Asin and Genelia are close rivals. While Genelia has been around for nearly a decade and is well established in the Telugu film industry, Asin has done mostly Tamil films and created a strong standing for herself there. And since the two have such varying personalities, the role has been tweaked somewhat to suit Asin better. “Genelia’s influence on the film has gone away completely, and replacing it will be the material written keeping Asin in mind,” the source added.
Asin, on her part, insists that it wasn’t a conscious decision to move away from what Genelia has done in the original version. “From the scenes to the screenplay to the background and the characterisation, everything has been changed. The original had a college theme which isn’t there anymore. I wasn’t even conscious of the fact that this role has been played before,” she says.
