Who gets Asin in London Dreams?

Vipul Shah’s London Dreams is making all the buzz this weekend with both Ajay Devgn and Salman Khan vying for Asin’s attention in the film. Asin couldn’t believe her stars when Vipul Shah approached her for the role of music enthusiast and dancer Priya in the film opposite Ajay Devgn and Salman Khan. “ I love Vipul’s cinema, he showcases emotions really well and his films always have strong music. So it was actually a no-brainer that I wanted to be a part of this project immediately on hearing its script.” Asin is a part of Ajay Devgn’s rock band London Dreams also consisting of Aditya Roy Kapoor and Rannvijay.

Ajay who secretly loves Priya is shocked when his close friend Salman who he invites to be a part of his band starts developing feelings for her.Asin felt at home while essaying the role of Priya, “I play a South Indian girl, who is emotional but strong willed and ambitious at the same time.And she has two radically different sides to her. At home she’s a traditional girl clad in Indian outfits but the minute she’s out with friends, she’s a fire brand, and that shows in the way she dresses. And she’s also partly responsible for the conflict between Salman and Ajay’s characters.” The conflict leading Ajay on a path of jealousy and pride when he sabotages his best friend Salman’s musical future only to realize the extent of his mistakes later. Asin described her co-stars saying, “Salman has a ‘bad boy’ image.

Many told me that he was very temperamental and erratic! Having worked with him I dispelled all those myths. I got to see a sensitive actor who had an absolute ball on the sets and went out of his way to make everyone comfortable.Both Ajay & Salman are also great offscreen friends and that shows on celluloid.”Vipul Shah was convinced on choosing Asin for his highly anticipated release after the success of Ghajini, ‘I had seen Asin’s work in several south Indian films and felt she was perfect for Priya’s part. After the success of Ghajini, I was convinced that I made the right decision. She’s only been a joy to work with and has excelled more than my expectations from her in the film.” He spoke of his leading lady.

When quizzed whether Asin goes with Salman in the movie, Vipul adds, ‘That would give away the climax of the film entirely which is bound to blow the audience away.” Early reports suggest may the best man win!
