The first look of Salman Khan’s next film Ready is ready on the airwaves, and the buzz around town is already about Asin essaying the lead role in the film opposite Salman. In the original Telugu hit, Genelia D’Souza had played the part, but Asin has surprisingly replaced her in the Hindi remake.

Down south, Asin and Genelia are close rivals. While Genelia has been around for nearly a decade and is well established in the Telugu film industry, Asin has done mostly Tamil films and created a strong standing for herself there. And since the two have such varying personalities, the role has been tweaked somewhat to suit Asin better. “Genelia’s influence on the film has gone away completely, and replacing it will be the material written keeping Asin in mind,” the source added.

You might spot Kareena, Katrina or even Aishwarya in the city, but it’s very difficult to spot Asin! Reason? The South actress chooses to wear a burqa, so she is not identified!

Recently, the girl was at a salon in Khar to do her nails and people were surprised to see her need for privacy. Said a source, who had visited the salon at the same time, “Bipasha Basu often comes to this place and is always very chilled out. She doesn’t try to hide her face or anything of that sort. Many other actresses, including Preity Zinta, come here too. So, it was very strange to see Asin wanting to conceal her identity under the veil. For what? She surely isn’t going to get mobbed!”

Though Asin must be on cloud nine given the fact that her forthcoming film READY is making the right noise, but here’s something Asin needs to worry about.

Firstly, READY being Salman’s film means that all eyes are going to be on him. This film belongs to Salman solely and Asin needs to worry about this fact. So, far she has been completely overshadowed by his stardom.

Asin has been appreciated for her work in Hindi films by her co-stars.

Salman Khan for one is all praise for Asin’s reportedly tremendous performance in the Ready remake. Having come from the south, Asin has managed to impress the Bollywood stars. But the Bollywood media have a grouse.

They have been continuously commenting on her ‘attitude’ on the sets, which she has never shown as a south Indian star. She is known for her humility and her quick decision-making.

Anees Bazmee’s movie Ready stars Salman Khan and Asin with Arya Babbar, Paresh Rawal, Mahesh Manjrekar, Akhilendra Mishra, Puneet Issarm, Manoj Joshi and Sudesh Lehri in supporting roles. The Bollywood film is a remake of Srinu Vytla’s 2008 Telugu flick with the same name that starred Ram and Chance Pe Dance actress Genelia D’Souza.
Anees Bazmee saw in Asin the perfect girl for the role of Pooja, a girl who meets Chandu, originally played by Ram, at her own wedding, escapes with him, and moves into his house. “The role requires a ‘chulbuli’, vivacious, talkative and agile girl. Asin was the natural choice,” Bazmee told reporters.
The film tells the story of Chandu, a student in engineering at Bellar University. After helping his cousin escape with the man she loves, he is thrown out of his father’s home and goes back to live on campus. When one of his friends falls in love with a girl, the girl’s father tries to force her to marry someone else.

While Asin’s last film ‘London Dreams’ opposite Salman didn’t fetch her much accolades and fame, speculations are riding high that the forthcoming Salman starrer ‘Ready’ will be a turning point in the bombshell’s career.

Every celebrity has been a victim of bad press and it is considered that the celebrity status and publicity- good or bad, goes hand in hand. But there have been times when the media people let their imagination run wild and come up with false news which hurt the celebrities to no end. Many of them try not to react to such ugly rumors but sometimes things just go out of hand. The latest victims to such circumstances are Asin, Yuvan Shankar Raja and RaNa Daggubati.

In their short Hindi film career so far, Asin, Jacqueline Fernandes and Zarine Khan have not yet been seen in a bikini. This may just about happen when the trio comes together in Sajid Khan’s ‘Housefull 2′.

“When Lara Dutta, Deepika Padukone and Jiah Khan came together in ‘Housefull’, there was a clear requirement for them to don a bikini”, says a friend of Sajid, “In fact as a director, Sajid had set expectations right at the narration stage itself that since the film was young, colourful and was being shot at exotic locales, it was the ‘demand of the script’ for the girls to be seen in their bare minimum.”
