Jacqueline Fernandes, Miss Sri Lanka 2006, is all set to enter Hindi film industry.
With her stunning looks and shapely body, Jacqueline is a perfect candidate to be a heroine in Bollywood. Only her linguistic shortcoming is an obstacle. But Jacqueline is determined to overcome that too.
This 22-year-old beauty from Sri Lanka has been hobnobbing with celebrities from Bollywood, the most noticeable of them Vivek Oberoi , who was seen publicly with her on several occasions in June this year.
A window of opportunity opened for Jacqueline to get her foot in the door to Bollywood when actress Ayesha Takia walked out of director Sujoy Ghosh ’s film Aladdin .
Rumours say it was Vivek (who acted in Ghosh’s previous film Home Delivery ) who got Jacqueline introduced to Ghosh as a possible replacement for Ayesha.
Jacqueline was signed for the part. She plays princess Jasmine in the film.
It is a good break for Jacqueline as the film has superstar Amitabh Bachchan playing a genie and Ritesh Deshmukh playing the title role of ‘Aladdin’.
Jacqueline, who loves Bollywood movies, has begun brushing up her Hindi but grapevine has it that she may not dub her dialogues in the film.
