Makers of Frieda Pinto's debut Bollywood film sign Rajkumar Yadav opposite her

There is a new man in Freida Pinto's life. And no, we are not talking about her romantic dalliances. Buzz is that the makers of Freida's first-ever Bollywood film have roped in Rajkumar Yadav to star opposite her.

A source says, `Now all eyes are on Freida as this film with Navdeep Singh and Vikramaditya Motwane will be her first Hindi project. Rajkumar has made a mark for himself with Kai Po Che. In fact, the makers were waiting for its release before they could announce theirs.`

An insider also states that Freida has asked Vikram to be present on the sets throughout the shooting process. `Since Navdeep wasn't able to complete his last film with Abhay Deol and Genelia D'souza, Freida wanted a clause in the contract. If anything goes haywire, then Vikram will have to come on board as the director and complete the film.`

Both Rajkumar and Navdeep remained unavailable for comment.
