Swara Bhaskar offered lead part in an Italian Film
Swara Bhaskar has a lot going for her this year. The talented actress, who’s riding high on the success of Tanu Weds Manu Returns, has an interesting line up of films releasing in the second quarter of the year including the Salman Khan starrer Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo directed by Sooraj Barjatya and Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari’s Nil Batey Sannata among others.
Now, if sources are to be believed, the versatile actress has been approached for a lead role in an Italian film. A source informs, “Swara was recently approached by the Italian filmmaker Gigi Roccati. It’s a comedy and slice-of-life entertainer based on Laila Wadia’s Italian novel Italian Lessons. Swara has read the script and liked it a lot, the director has come to Bombay met her and feels she is ideal for the part. However Swara needs to see if she can fit the film in her already packed schedule as she’s shooting her final schedule for Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo around the same dates as the Italian film is to be filmed. If she agrees to do the film then she has to work out her dates.”
Swara confirms saying, “I have been offered an Italian film, its a lovely script but I am yet to decide as there may be a date clash.”
