This morning we woke up to the news of Alia Bhatt being finalised as the leading lady in Karan Johar's Dostana 2. However, contrary to reports, Karan has now DENIED Alia being a part of the sequel. In fact, the filmmaker hasn't chosen a female lead as of yet. Taking to Twitter to clarify it once again, KJo said, "For the record.....NO ONE has been officially approached for DOSTANA 2!!!! Some thoughts and ideas are underway but nothing official has moved [sic]". Well, we hope this clears the air! Karan Johar Ropes in Alia Bhatt for Dostana Sequel - Read Deets.

Mumbai Mirror carried the report this morning that Alia has liked the script of the movie and is likely to get on- board soon. The preproduction work of the film has also apparently begun, said the reports. "The conversation has begun, and Alia has liked the idea. She will hear the final script and close the formalities soon. Casting for her two male co-stars is presently underway after which Karan will make the final announcement.

Talking about the storyline of Dostana 2, Karan has been tight- lipped about the entire star cast of the movie and there aren't much details about the film out. Knowing him, he might just suddenly drop the bomb on the internet some day and announce the leads of Dostana sequel. Until then, all we can do is hope for the best!
