The
news
that
has
been
doing
the
rounds
for
sometime
now
is
about
the
search
for
the
heroine
of
Farah
Khan
and
Shirish
Kunder's
flick
Tees
Maar
Khan.
The
film
has
been
in
news
since
its
announcement.
First
it
was
Akshay
replacing
SRK
as
the
lead,
followed
by
the
'namesake'
casting
coup,
wherein
Akshaye
Khanna
was
roped
in
for
the
film.
As
far
as
the
heroine
for
the
film
was
concerned,
the
rumor
mills
went
overboard
with
names
that
ranged
from
Sonam
Kapoor
to
Deepika
Padukone
and
likes.
But,
according
to
our
confirmed
sources
it
is
neither
Sonam,
nor
Deepika,
because
it
is
Katrina
Kaif!
When
we
spoke
to
Shirish
to
confirm
the
news,
all
that
he
said
was,
"I
cannot
say
anything
right
now.
I
can
only
speak
about
it
in
a
couple
of
days." Our
source
also
went
onto
add
that
the
trio
of
Akshay,
Katrina
and
Farah
have
shot
a
cover
page
shoot
for
a
daily
(which
is
supposed
to
be
out
in
a
couple
of
days)
to
announce
the
coming
on
board
of
Katrina
as
Tees
Maar
Khan's
leading
lady.
With
Katrina
coming
on
board,
expectations
are
bound
to
be
sky-high
about
Tees
Maar
Khan,
considering
the
hit
track
record
that
Akki-Katz
have
delivered
in
the
past,
like
Namastey
London,
Welcome
and
Singh
Is
Kinng
to
name
a
few.
What
remains
to
be
seen
is
that
will
Tees
Maar
Khan
follow
suit
or
will
it
create
a
new
track
record?
