The Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandez went for a month-long yoga to look hot

Actress Jacqueline Fernandez is all excited about her next ambitious project which is an action thriller. After enjoying success at the box-office with Housefull 2, the actor is now looking forward to the response to her action avtar in Race 2. The Sri Lankan beauty went for a month-long yoga retreat in Kerala and followed a special therapeutic diet and fitness regime.

A source from the sets reveals, “Jackie went on a special juice diet which is apparently popular in Kerala. It is the first time that she has been so vigilant about what she’s eating. Even during her modelling days, she never put in so much effort. But Jacqueline believes in the film and is putting in more than 100 per cent into it. Although she was doing daily hour-long workouts to get a lean and fit look, she decided to put herself through this special diet. She has been doing yoga to rejuvenate herself, and the retreat was the perfect place for her to prepare for the film which required her to look her sexiest best. It is a hardcore action flick, and Jackie needed to be absolutely fit to perform all the daredevil stunts.”

Jacqueline, who wanted to change her look altogether for the film, says, “I wanted to look completely different in this film. Every thing, starting from my haircut, hair colour, to my weight and wardrobe, was changed to suit the character. Before I started shooting for the film, I went on a juice fast at a yoga retreat to look and feel my best.”

Producer Ramesh Taurani confirms, “Jacqueline is looking very sexy in the movie. She has done a fabulous job in preparing for her role and fulfilling the requirements of her character. I have to say she is a really hardworking actress.”

Deepika may ditch Saif for Ranbir!

It had to happen. Once Deepika Padukone signed on Ayan Mukerji's Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani with her ex-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor, everything else had to take a backseat. The first casualty seems to be Abbas Mustan's Race 2, where she is teamed opposite Saif Ali Khan.

Our source informs, "Race 2 is meant to be shot between January 2012 and June 2012. Saif, John Abraham (the baddie), Anil Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha have allotted dates accordingly. However, Deepika is not able to accommodate this film now as the dates of Race 2 and YJHD are clashing."

Deepika was asked to make a choice and she chose Ranbir (naturally) over Saif. Reports suggest that producer Ramesh Taurani is livid with Deepika. Her last-minute ditch may leave the project in limbo.

Since it is a multi-starrer with big names involved, putting the project together with all their dates itself has taken a while. Now, Deepika's exit may just jeopardise it. Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma don't have dates for this project either.

Deepika's spokesperson said, "It's still not final whether Deepika will quit Race 2. Her dates are being worked out."

Sonakshi works out to look sexier

Daughter of Shatrughan Sinha, Sonakshi Sinha became an overnight star with the success of ‘Dabangg’. She has two promising projects lined up, one is Farah Khan’s ‘Joker’ and the other is Abbas Mustan’s ‘Race 2’. Both the film demands Sonakshi to look slimmer. So to look slimmer and sexier, Sonakshi begun to work out.  Abbas Mustan asked Sonakshi to lose few kilos and the new girl immediately went into action.

"First, I had to lose weight for my debut in 'Dabangg'. Now I've to get into even better shape for 'Joker' and 'Race 2'. For the last two years that's all I seem to be doing. Losing weight. But I am fine with that. Because it's important for me to look good,' said Sonakshi, 23.

In ‘Race’, Bipasha Basu looked hot and sexy and to match up to Bips, Sonakshi had to shed weight and look hot.

“Bipasha Basu was presented in a very striking way in Race. We've to make sure Sonakshi is equally presented in the sequel", says producer Ramesh Taurani.
