Salman Khan dumps Deepika, courtesy her closeness with SRK?

Superstar Shahrukh Khan has been one of the favourite co-stars of Bollywood's sexy babe Deepika Padukone. Dippy made her first toddler steps in the industry holding SRK's hand with the filmOm Shanti Om, and now again, the duo will be seen in Rohit Shetty's upcoming movie Chennai Express. But, this SRK-Dippy closeness seems to have offended Salman Khan, who has reportedly decided to cast Jacqueline Fernandez in his upcoming film Kick.

A while ago, rumours were rife that Deepika Padukone will be featuring in Salman Khan's much talked about action drama Kick. There were many considerations for the female lead for the movie, but it was later reported that Salman was keen on casting Dippy in the film. Also, on the other hand, Dippy has shown her interest to work with Salman. But, now it looks like Salman and Dippy's fans have to wait longer to see the duo pairing up onscreen as Deepika is no longer Salman's choice for Kick, courtesy SRK.

According to the recent reports, Jacqueline Fernandez has been finalised for Salman's Kick. Kick will be the remake of 2009 Telugu blockbuster of the same name, which stars Ravi Teja and Ileana D'Cruz (Barfi fame). The fresh pairing of Salman Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez will definitely be the highlight of the film.
