EXCLUSIVE: Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone to team up for the first time in Siddharth Anand’s next

It is finally happening. The much anticipated pairing of Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone is coming together for the first time in Siddharth Anand’s next. After Deepika recently dropped hints of a happy celebration with Hrithik recently, many wondered what it could be. Well, we have all the deets for you. Sources tell us that the film will revolve around fighter jets and will most likely go on floors towards the end of this year.

It is known that Hrithik had signed an action film last year itself with Siddharth Anand and now the filmmaker has locked his leading lady in Deepika alongside Duggu. The source elaborated, “The role is action-oriented and will release next year. The makers will be making an official announcement of the movie on Hrithik’s birthday which is January 10.” Isn’t this exciting, it is truly something both Hrithik and Deepika fans would rejoice about.

After the super successful ‘WAR’, Siddharth and Hrithik were discussing doing a film, which happens to be this one. Meanwhile, Sid is also shooting with Deepika for ‘Pathan’ right now, when he decided to bounce off the idea to her and she loved it. “The actioner will have Hrithik and Deepika in prominent action driven roles. Both of them will shoot several high octane action and stunt sequences together. Tentatively, the film is titled Fighter. This was also the initial title Siddharth had locked for ‘WAR’.”
