Karan Johar's production, Dostana which released in the year 2008 ended up being a superhit at the box office and the story was something new and refreshing. The movie starred Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra; and the actress even got the name 'desi girl' through this movie, all thanks to the song with the same name. Reports are now doing the rounds that Karan Johar is planning for a sequel named Dostana 2 and has approached Katrina Kaif to star as the leading lady.

However, it is reported that Katrina Kaif turned down the offer, as the dates were clashing with her other movies and now the film-maker has approached Priyanka Chopra to play the leading lady once again. We'll have to wait and watch if Priyanka Chopra will give her nod to Dostana 2, considering that she'd be busy with her wedding to Nick Jonas by the end of this year.

Dostana 2 Was Coined 10 Years Ago!

Reports state that Karan Johar had already prepared the script for Dostana 2 right after Dostana's release; but didn't take the movie forward, as he was busy with other projects.

Katrina Kair Or Priyanka Chopra?

"Dostana 2 was announced 10 years ago, and Katrina was roped in at that time. Now that the film is actually being made, Katrina's dates are no longer available, because she has committed them to Salman Khan's Bharat. So now the project has gone back to Priyanka," said a source to Deccan Chronicle.

Movie Swaps!

Ironically, when Priyanka Chopra backed out of Salman Khan's Bharat, the movie went to Katrina Kaif. Now in Dostana 2, the opposite is happening! Pretty interesting, eh?
