While
it"s
not
uncommon
for
two
leading
ladies
to
be
supremely
competitive
in
a
film
it
is
certainly
strange
to
see
two
of
the
actresses
both
believing
they
have
the
better
role.
Deepika
Padukone
and
Lara
Dutta
are
shooting
for
Sajid
Khan"s
Housefull
at
the
moment.
Both
believe
they"ve
the
best
role,
and
Lara
says
as
much.
“The
film
has
Deepika,
Jiah
and
me….three
girls.
But
mine
is
a
great
role.
It"s
the
strongest
role
among
the
females," says
Lara
assertively.
So
where
does
that
leave
Deepika,
who
has
just
delivered
a
whopper
of
a
hit
in
Love
Aaj
Kal?
Says
a
source,
“Deepika
is
the
main
female
romantic
lead.
She
has
most
of
the
songs
and
romantic
scenes
with
Akshay
(Kumar).
Lara
has
a
stronger
role
in
terms
of
the
dialogue
and
the
comic
sequences."
Housefull
is
a
comedy
of
errors,
apparently
inspired
by
Hrishikesh
Mukherjee"s
Chupke
Chupke,
a
house
filled
with
the
characters
coming
and
going
and
creating
a
commotion
of
mistaken
identity.
A
die-hard
Hrishida
fan,
Sajid
Khan
(He
even
acted
in
Hrishida"s
last
film
Jhooth
Bole
Kauva
Kate)
has
given
Akshay
Kumar
a
role
that
echoes
Dharmendra
in
Chupke
Chupke.
And
if
Sajid
is
a
die-hard
Hrishikesh
Mukherjee
fan,
Akshay
Kumar
has
been
a
lifelong
Dharmendra
fan.
So
where
does
that
leave
the
two
leading
ladies?
“Both
believing
that
she
has
the
best
female
role
while
Akshay
Kumar
has
the
best
part
by
far,"
says
a
source
from
the
film.
