If
all
goes
well,
then
Salman
Khan
may
turn
the
bodyguard
of
Bollywood
actress
Deepika
Padukone!
Don"t
get
confused,
he
is
very
much
into
acting
and
it
will
be
for
the
sake
of
a
film
only.
There
is
speculation
that
the
Hindi
remake
of
the
South
Indian
director
Siddique"s
Malayalam
film
Bodyguard,
will
cast
Deepika
opposite
the
Wanted
star
Salman.
The
Malayalm
version
of
the
film
was
released
in
March.
The
leading
South
Indian
director
Siddique
wrote
and
directed
the
film
himself.
The
story
of
the
film
deals
with
a
young
man,
who
gets
attracted
to
people
with
heroic
qualities
and
follows
them
like
a
bodyguard.
But,
the
interesting
twist
comes
when
he
is
hired
to
accompany
a
businessman"s
gorgeous
daughter
to
college
as
a
real
bodyguard.
In
the
Malayalam
version
of
Bodyguard,
South
Indian
actors
Dileep
and
Nayantara
were
in
the
lead
roles.
Currently,
the
director
is
busy
with
the
Tamil
version
of
the
film,
which
stars
Asin
Thottumkal
and
the
South
superstar
Vijay.
Many
other
filmmakers
approached
Siddique
but
only
Atul
Agnihotri
managed
to
get
the
rights
for
the
Hindi
version
of
the
film.
Siddique
will
take
up
the
role
of
the
director
and
writer
in
the
Hindi
version
after
completing
the
Tamil.
Salman
Khan
has
confirmed
playing
the
lead
role
but
Deepika
is
not
sure
yet.
Atul
informed
that
they
were
still
working
on
the
script.
He
said,
“We
are
still
completing
other
important
tasks
before
we
decide
on
signing
the
actors." He
added
that
the
shooting
of
the
film
will
commence
on
December
6
in
Ranikhet.
