If rumours are to be believed, Ankita Lokhande has Shah Rukh Khan to thank for helping her bag a role in Farah Khan's next film Happy New Year. Apparently the star spotted Sushant Singh Rajput's ladylove at a recently concluded awards gala in Macau.
Says a source, `Several names, including that of Katrina Kaif, have been doing the rounds. SRK spotted Ankita with Sushant at Macau.`
Apparently, the actor felt Ankita fitted the bill for the Maharashtrian protagonist perfectly. `He spoke to Farah. Once Ankita came back, she met the director and now has apparently signed on the dotted line,` adds the source.
