Is Anushka Sharma Salman Khan's leading lady in upcoming film

Filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya has finalised Salman Khan for his next family drama, but he is yet to choose a leading lady for the movie.

"We have shortlisted few names and Anushka Sharma is in the wish list. But it's too early to comment anything as the film will go on the floors in 2014. Besides Anushka even Sonakshi Sinha is being contemplated for the role," a source told IANS.

The film, to be produced under the banner Rajshri Productions, will be widely shot in Rajasthan and Gujarat and it will be prepared for a 2015 Diwali release.

Salman has earlier worked with Sooraj in blockbusters Maine Pyar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hain Kaun and Hum Saath Saath Hain.
