Mumbai: Actors Deeepika Padukone and Lara Dutta are shooting for director Sajid Khan's Housefull at the moment and both believe they've the best role.
"The film has Deepika, Jiah (Khan) and me – three girls. But mine is a great role. It's the strongest role among the females," Lara said.
So where does that leave Deepika who was recently seen in the hit movie Love Aaj Kal?
"Deepika is the main female romantic lead. She has most of the songs and romantic scenes with Akshay Kumar. Lara has a stronger role in terms of the dialogue and the comic sequences," said a source.
Housefull is a comedy of errors apparently inspired by Hrishikesh Mukherjee's Chupke Chupke. The film is about a house filled with characters coming and going and creating a commotion of mistaken identity.
A diehard Hrishikesh Mukherjee fan, Sajid, who had acted in the veteran director's last film Jhooth Bole Kawwa Kaate, has given Akshay a role that echoes of Dharmendra’s part in Chupke Chupke.
And if Sajid is a diehard Hrishida fan then Akshay has been a lifelong Dharmendra fan.
So where does that leave the two leading ladies?
"Both believing that each have the best female role while Akshay has the best part by far," said a source from the film.
