The makers of 'Aitraaz 2' have reached out to actor Taapsee Pannu to lead their female-centric story. The announcement for the film was made in November last year when producer Subhash Ghai mentioned Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and shared that he was ready for 'Aitraaz 2' after working on a fresh story for three years.
It is been learnt that while Pannu hasn't signed on the dotted line yet, she liked the story. A source close to the production said, "From what we hear, Taapsee has
been given a script reading for 'Aitraaz 2', but there’s no confirmation on her end or from the production team yet. Right now, it's all speculation, but if she does come on board, it will be exciting to watch."
The 37-year-old is known for making independent, strong choices in the industry by representing real-life women on-screen. In 'Aitraaz', which was released in 2004, Priyanka played a femme fatale role when women were only imagined as good-ideal wives and lovers on-screen.
