Recently, rumour mills went abuzz with the reports of Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti replacing Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha as the lead cast of 'Namastey England', a sequel to Katrina Kaif and Akshay starrer 'Namastey London'. Also joining Akshay and Sonakshi in the cast was a newcomer, model Aisha.
With Arjun and Parineeti now replacing Akki and Sona, there were reports that Jacqueline Fernandez has been approached to play the second lead in the film. However, Jacqueline rejected the role as she was not too happy to play second fiddle to Parineeti.
A source close to a leading tabloid revealed, "Jacqueline is doing some big films with top stars, including A Gentleman with Sidharth Malhotra, Judwaa 2 with Varun Dhawan, Drive with Sushant Singh Rajput and director Remo D'Souza's untitled next with Salman Khan. She didn't want to play a role subordinate to Parineeti. Jackie's market price is also more than Pari's. Why would she do 'Namastey Canada'?"
When asked Vipul Shah about Jacqueline's part in the film, the filmmaker refuted the rumours and said, "I don't know where you have heard this from. I have not met anybody for the role."
Well, with we wonder who will come on board to play the second lead in the film.
