Actress
Ileana
D'
Cruz
is
gearing
up
for
her
next
film
3
Rascals,
a
remake
of
Bollywood
blockbuster
3
Idiots.
The
actress
is
all
set
to
play
the
female
lead
in
this
film
directed
by
Shankar.
Ileana,
who
is
currently
filming
Junior
NTR's
Shakti,
recently
had
a
lengthy
discussion
with
the
director
about
her
role.
She
plays
the
role
of
a
medical
student,
which
was
played
by
Kareena
Kapoor
in
the
original.
It
seems
Shankar
is
making
some
minor
changes
to
her
character
in
the
film
to
suit
the
taste
of
the
regional
audience.
However,
she
has
reportedly
been
paid
a
whopping
Rs.
1.
4
crore
to
play
the
lead
in
Telugu
and
Tamil
versions.
She
will
pair
Mahesh
Babu
in
Telugu
and
Vijay
in
Tamil.
Shankar
has
finalized
Jeeva
for
the
third
lead,
which
was
played
by
Sharman
Joshi
in
3
Idiots.
But
he
is
yet
to
finalize
the
actor
for
second
lead.
Aarya,
Silambarasan's
name
are
doing
rounds
for
second
fiddle.
