Grapevine suggests the casting team is having a tough time between choosing Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra as the lead actor opposite Jr Roshan

Ashutosh Gowariker may have breathed a sigh of relief after having finalised Hrithik as the lead male actor for his upcoming film Mohenjo-Daro but casting a female actor opposite the Krrish actor has been giving him a tough time. It was believed that Gowariker earlier approached Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif but that didn't work out.

Now we hear that Gowariker has been getting calls by two of the biggest Bollywood divas and both are expressing keen interest in the film. Looks like Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra want to feature in Gowariker's Mohenjo-daro real bad! They have both been hinting at their respective interest in the film and Gowariker is now to take a call.

We figured why Kareena wants the film so bad, with the Bollywood career spiraling down her desire to bag a film opposite Hrithik being made under the Gowariker banner is understandable. Had Kareena agreed to working in Shuddhi alongside Hrithik things might have gone a lot smoother for Bebo careerwise, hai na? Whatever be the choice, we think the jodi would work because Hrithik has worked with both the actors in the past.

A source added to the information we received saying, ""Ashutosh is currently busy shooting for his TV show, Everest, due to which he has not started working on the film's casting. He is yet to approach any heroine, though it is true that some of them have spoken to him and shown interest in starring in the project."

We will update you on who gets the role once we know it. Till then, tell us who you think is fitter to star opposite Hrithik in Gowariker's Mohenjo-daro: Kareena or Priyanka?
