Katrina Kaif has scored the first big showbiz coup of 2012 - she's bagged the coveted role opposite legendary actor Rajinikanth in Kochadaiyaan, being directed by his daughter, Soundarya Ashwin.

 Soundarya confirms the news saying, "Yes, we are indeed in talks with Katrina and we will let you know soon." The schedules and date are being adjusted and negotiated.

Kochadaiyaan, an epic love story of a king who is a devotee of Lord Shiva, will be shot in 3D. Katrina is currently busy shooting for Yashraj production along with Shah Rukh Khan but has assured to do this film and give her dates. The first look of ‘Kochadaiyaan’ will be unveiled in the third week of January. Rajinikanth will sport long flowing tresses for the part.

 The music has been composed by Oscar winner AR Rahman who has reportedly signed 130 musicians from Germany to record the background score for the film. Most portions of the film have already been shot and once Katrina wraps up Yash Chopra's next opposite Shah Rukh Khan, she will be ready to work with this "Rana" for the first time!

 Speaking of Rana, Deepika Padukone was slated to star opposite Rajinikanth in this period drama, which has been postponed repeatedly due to the superstar's illness and long convalescence. Some reports say the work on the film will now resume after Kochadaiyaan.

The most anticipated film has finally kicked off with a small pooja amidst the cast and crew. Yash Raj Films’ most-anticipated and ambitious film, a love story by the king of romance drama, 75-year-old Yash Chopra, has finally taken off with a small ceremonial pooja at their plush studios in Mumbai today. Chopra’s younger son, Uday Chopra, who usually assists him on the sets, confirmed the film’s launch on Twitter.

He tweeted: “Launching my dad’s film today with a little pooja at YRF… shoot starts tomorrow with Shahrukh Khan and Katrina Kaif. Dad directing after Veer- Zaara (sic).” Meanwhile, the film’s lead, SRK who has worked with senior Chopra in Darr, Dil Toh Pagal Hai and Veer-Zaara tweeted after the film launch: “Feel extremely happy when I start work with Yashji…from the inside.

Easy… smiles… happiness… purity of storytelling.” Well, we hope the pleasure of working again with the thespian filmmaker does bring happiness in SRK’s career which has been going through a rough patch due to the mixed responses to both his recent releases: RA.One and Don 2. Anyway, apart from Katrina, YRF’s fave girl, Anushka Sharma, plays a consequential part in the film.
