After being cast opposite Ranbir Kapoor in Barfi!, Ileana D'Cruz will romance Shahid Kapoor. The duo has been signed by Ramesh Taurani for his upcoming film Phata Poster Nikla Hero, to be directed by Rajkumar Santoshi.
Producer Ramesh Taurani feels that Shahid-Ileana will make a fresh pair. Shahid, who has been busy reading plenty of scripts for the last few months, is finally looking to shooting films back to back. His last two films, Mausam directed by his father Pankaj Kapur and Teri Meri Kahaani helmed by Kunal Kohli, haven't done too well at the box-office.
So, Shahid will be doing Prabhu Deva's next film and a film with Maneesh Sharma, besides Phata Poster Nikla Hero.
Ileana's chemistry with Ranbir Kapoor has been much appreciated in the trailers of Barfi!, so it will be interesting to see her pairing with Shahid.
