Dabangg heroine Sonakshi Sinha appears to be the flavour of the year. A little birdie tells us, "She has been signed opposite Salman Khan in Sajid Nadiadwala's Kick.

Apparently, Salman has been recommending her as he's impressed by her talent. Even his best buddy producer Sajid (who was toying with the idea of signing Deepika Padukone) has now signed her.

Shotgun's beti has also been approached by Abbas-Mastan for The Italian Job remake with Abhishek Bachchan after Sonam Kapoor had to step out because of lack of dates.

Now one hears Anushka Sharma might be stepping into the role that was originally Katrina's." Our head is reeling, even if yours isn't.
