For a while now, there\u2019s been speculation about who will play the 29-year-old boxer. Although the makers remain tightlipped, we\u2019ve heard that Priyanka Chopra might be the frontrunner for the coveted part. Trade sources say that Katrina Kaif\u2019s name is also in the reckoning,\u201d says the report.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs far as we know, Priyanka is going through the script right now. But nothing can be finalised until she finishes reading it. It\u2019s a big secret because neither Sanjay nor Omung want to let any information about the film out,\u201d says the report.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, the film is likely to kick off around March-April next year, even though the female lead hasn\u2019t been finalised yet.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <strong>Mid Day<\/strong> reports that Kajal Aggarwal took inspiration from Mary Kom in her upcoming movie where she is playing a role of a boxer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs boxer Nisha, I am this strong willed, impulsive girl.
