With the film's script in its final stage, the director is planning to approach Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and Vidya Balan to play the lead role in his film.


A source says, `Madhur will be meeting all three of them and depending on how the talks go, the film's lead will be finalised.` The director of Fashion and Heroine clearly hasn't had enough of women-centric films.

The source adds that this film traces the story of a small-time actress who turns to politics under the guidance of her mentor, and that the film's lead character will be in her late 30s or early 40s.
