Shraddha Kapoor In 'Rock On 2'

'Ek Villain' star Shraddha Kapoor has been roped in to play the female lead in Rock On 2 opposite the previous actors Farhan Akhtar and Arjun Rampal.

Rock On 2, a sequel of the hit 2008 Indian rock musical film of the same name, will also see Pracchi Desai in a pivotal role. Debutant director Shujaat Saudagar has come onboard to helm the film, which will be produced by earlier producers Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani.

"@ShraddhaKapoor welcome aboard to Rock N Roll... #Rockon2#RockOn2... Prachi Desai plays an important part and it's not a special appearance," Sidhwani posted on Twitter.

So now the rumours about Alia Bhatt roped in to do Rock On 2 is put to rest. What was Alia's miss is Shraddha Kapoor's catch!

Shraddha has recently wrapped up the shooting of dance based drama ABCD 2. The actress, who sung 'Galliyan' in Ek Villain and a Kashmiri folk song in Haider, is also expected to croon again in Rock On 2.
