The trailer of the Ranbir Kapoor-Priyanka Chopra starrer Barfi! was revealed recently and the Chaplinesque romantic comedy was gushed about by all and sundry. However, what many don't know is that director Anurag Basu initially wanted Katrina Kaif to play the role that eventually went to South actress Ileana D'Cruz.
Confirming the news, Basu said that he was quite impressed with the Ranbir-Katrina chemistry in movies like Raajneeti and Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani and as such, wanted Kaif to be cast opposite Kapoor. It seems that even Katrina had agreed to the project but later backed out as it was rumoured that she did not want to star in a two-heroine film.
Ranbir Kapoor will be seen playing a deaf-mute character named Murphy in the film, whereas Priyanka Chopra will be seen playing an autistic girl.
