UNIQUE AND SEXY WALLPAPER

Deepika Padukone and Siddharth Mallya are taking their relationship to the next level. They are now holidaying together, and their destination of choice is London. Yup, DP and Sid will ring in the New Year in the UK, and we caught them at Mumbai airport. On the cards for their London holiday is shopping, partying and sight-seeing in the countryside.

Despite the shared vacation, there's still no admission from the couple that they're seeing each other.

It wasn't too long ago when Sajid Nadiadwala and Siddharth Anand were collaborating on making a film based on Chetan bhagat's novel 'Two States'. At that time the actors under consideration were Saif Ali Khan with a toss up between Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone.

However, it is a different situation now with Vishal Bhardwaj coming in place of Siddharth and Shah Rukh Khan being the leading man for this film which still remains a Sajid Nadiadwala production. This also means that there is not much clarity around whether the choice of leading ladies would still be between Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone or some other name will emerge as well.

"The rights of 'Two States' are with Sajid. When he and Siddharth were working together again after 'Anjaana Anjaani', things were a little different," says an industry insider, "Since Siddharth is close to Saif Ali Khan (after working with him in 'Salaam Namaste' and 'Ta Ra Rum Pum'), the actor was earlier finalised for the role."

This was the time when news around Priyanka Chopra or Deepika Padukone being the chosen one started making the rounds. However, Sajid kept mum about it and didn't make any declarations about the heroine.

"Now that Siddharth is no more directing the film, Sajid is in conversation with Vishal for the girl who would eventually step in", continues the insider, "It is obvious that Shah Rukh would be involved in the finalisation as well. You never know, there could be a total surprise in store."
