Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor were rumored to pair up as Heer Ranjha for Sajid Nadiadwala but the film has been shelved now. The film was to be directed by Sabir Khan but now the film is no longer happening and the reason behind it is said that Deepika is not keen to do the film.

Shahid is now going to be part of another of Sajid's film directed by Sabir Khan but Deepika will not be part of the venture. A friend of Nadiadwala revealed that Sabir is working on the script of the new film which is not Heer Ranjha. Why is it then that a section of media came to know about Deepika doing a film from Sabir?

The director earlier reported that the height difference between a hero and a heroine is not much of botheration and since Deepika and Shahid have not been paired together it would be an interesting on-screen coupling to see. But at the moment it seems that the fresh pairing is not happening the audience has to wait for quite a while to see these two together on-screen.

Right now Sabir is penning something new and Deepika is not going to romance or sizzle on-screen with Shahid in it. Deepika's last film was with Abhishek Bachchan Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey and it dunked in the box-office.

Next she will be seen doing a special appearance in the song 'Dum Maro Dum' in the flick Dum Maro Dum and her major release will be Desi Boyz, Aarakshan and Housefull 2 in 2011. On the other hand Shahid is filming dad Pankaj Kapoor's debut film Mausam.
