Rang De Basanti star Siddharth is now all set to do a role that is modeled on Hrithik Roshan's character in Farhan
Akhtar's Lakshya.
Ironically it will be a role reversal of kind for Siddharth as Hrithik Roshan was first
approached to play his role in Rang De Basanti by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra. When Hrithik had declined the part,
Siddharth was chosen.
Sources reveal, "South filmmaker Ravi Babu is making a Telugu film with Siddharth which has him playing a lazy son
who wanders aimlessly after completing his graduation.
He comes from a rich family and his father's views
push him to join Army to learn the true value of life. From then on as Siddhath joins the Army, he ends up standing as
an example eventually."
See by now it can be made out that the script appears heavily inspired from Hrithik Roshan's Lakshya.
It is
further learnt that Siddharth is now going to take a nine month break after his upcoming Telugu film Oye releases to
build his body up to six-pack.
He has also hired the physical trainer Satya who worked for Aamir Khan for
Ghajini. This movie will be produced by Sunkara Madhu Murali and Ravi Babu.
