Jacqueline Fernandez plays extraordinary roles in Krissh 2

According to the information collected, Jacqueline Fernandez is maintaining silence or is being reserved while performing her role in the new forthcoming movie the second part of Krissh named “Krissh 2”. One of her close pal revealed the information in front of the media.

Out of the information generated, Jacqueline’s character is actually a mixture of Mary Jane’s role in “Spiderman” and the high action power packed Alice from “Resident Evil”. In the movie Jacqueline Fernandez will be forecasted as a super woman or super lady cast with basic powers which could be to any extent from thinking and extrasensory to memories to superhuman powers of rapidity, determination, super visualization, and power. To actually perform all these performances and work on this movie, Jacqueline will have to take up a demanding training course for being trained on the action sequences for which she is planning to visit foreign for a period of may be 30 days.

As per the information given it is said that prior to Jacqueline it was Chitrangada who had actually been selected for this lead role in “Krissh 2” opposite Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan.

The film was actually set to release in the month of October and due to few circumstances it will not be and the shoots are planning to be completed by the month of December 2011. Here came the problem for Chitrangada as she had clash of dates of the film with her other projects and had to give up the film “Krissh 2”, for which the producers replaced her with Jacqueline Fernandez.

Murder 2 Actress Jacqueline to portray negative role

Murder 2 girl Jacqueline seems to be in love with sequels. That's probably why after Murder 2 and Housefull 2, she is keen on taking up Krissh 2. The actor is likely to replace Chitrangada Singh as a female mutant in Rakesh Roshan's Krissh sequel.

A source informed Mumbai Mirror, “The meeting with Jacqueline stretched for over three hours. They discussed the script and the actress was quite keen. By the end, both Hrithik and Rakesh seemed to be quite positive about her.”

Rakesh Roshan confirms that Chitrangada indeed has stepped out of the film. He told the tabloid, “I was to start my film in October and took dates accordingly. Now, the film is going on floors in December and Chitrangda is having some problems with her dates then. She has already committed her dates to some other project in December and cannot delay it. So I am looking for some actor who can give the dates according to my schedule.”

But rumour mills suggest something else. Reportedly, Chirangada opted out because her role was smaller than expected. The actor thought the role was that of a main female villain, but it actually turned out to be a cameo.

Jacqueline Fernandez's negative role in Krrish 2 would be worth watching out for. Meanwhile here's a video of the Murder 2 girl sizzling in a song.

Krrish 2 music to be sold for Rs 6 crore!

Rakesh Roshan’s Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, Chitrangadha Singh and Vivek Oberoi starrer Krrish sequel seems to be a grosser even before it is ready.

Besides the fact that Rakesh Roshan has sold the film to multiple distributors as well as sold the channel rights, a little bird reveals that the music of the film, composed by Rajesh Roshan, has been acquired by T-series for Rs 6 crore.

It may be recalled that Krrish was labelled a trendsetter as it was one of the highest grossers of 2006. Half a decade later, one is expecting the sequel to once again set the box-office ringing.

Vivek Oberoi To Learn To Fly Krissh 2

Afer Shahid Kapoor, Vivek Oberoi is the latest one to take flying lessons for his next. The actor is looking forward to get a license to shoot climax action scene with Hrithik Roshan. A well-placed source told Mid Day that Vivek has enrolled at a flying institute in Florida, US. And as and when he can, he takes off, to complete his flying hours before he can get his license.

Reportedly, his character is inspired from Patrick Stewart's Professor Charles Xavier in the Hollywood's X-Men series. There are quite a few mutants in this flick too. Chitrangada Singh's character is based on Mystique, who can transform herself completely into another individual.

Rakesh Roshan has come up with one more twist in the flick. Vivek Oberoi will be seen glued to a wheelchair for most part of the film and then will be cured before the climax, Mid Day revealed.

Amusingly, Professor Charles also has a hi-tech plane for himself and his team, which may be the inspiration behind the specially designed plane for Vivek's character in the movie.

The production house is trying to keep the other details of the movie under wraps to build up suspense for the viewers.
