Shah Rukh Khan does not have a camp of heroines. If you have worked with him in the past, it does not imply that you will feature again in his future projects. Piggy Chops has learnt this the hard way.
Despite having worked with King Khan in Don (2006) and now Don 2, Priyanka cannot assume she will act with the superstar in the film version of Chetan Bhagat's novel 2 States. Apparently, King Khan felt that Priyanka would not suit the role of the female lead and that a fresher and younger face would.SRK voiced his opinion to Vishal Bhardwaj, who is directing the film now. Vishal agreed with SRK's idea and soon Piggy was out of the project. The hunt for a fresh face has begun.
SRK and Sajid Nadiadwala are co-producers of the film. A source said, "Initially when the film was solely produced by Nadiadwala, it was Siddharth Anand who was directing the film and Saif Ali Khan and Priyanka were to play the lead roles. Although Saif and Siddharth are no longer in the project, Priyanka still continued to be the choice for the leading lady. Until now that is."
The source continues, "Vishal flew down to Berlin, where SRK and Piggy were shooting for Don 2. He narrated the revised script to both the actors in the same room; sure enough they liked it. This was the second narration Piggy Chops was hearing, after the one from Siddharth."

Explaining exactly what SRK said to Vishal, our source said, "He told Vishal that he knew Priyanka was one of his favourite heroines, but the demands of the script could not be ignored."
SRK and Vishal didn't revert to us about this story. And maybe poor Chops doesn't even know. What a state to be in.
