Diana bags Barjatya's next with Salman

24th July 2013
It's been over a year since she made her debut, but Diana Penty seems to be in no rush to sign her second film. 
 
Director Umesh Shukla of 'OMG - Oh My God' had approached Diana for his next that has Abhishek Bachchan in the lead and was being produced by T-series. However, Diana denied the offer without even explaining the real reason. 
 
Later on, she was offered a movie opposite Akshay Kumar and she amazed the superstar by declining that offer too.
 
In fact, in the past one year, Diana has been rejecting many film offers. But now, sources say that the actress has finally said a 'yes'. 
 
Director Sooraj Barjatya is set to direct a movie after 14 long years with his favorite star Salman Khan and approached Diana for a role. 
 
Sooraj is known to make films for family audiences and Diana felt comfortable with the script and agreed to sign the movie. 
 
Parineeti Chopra and Ileana D'Cruz were strong contenders for the role too, but Diana stood a stronger chance because of her 'sweet girl' persona that she displayed in 'Cocktail'.
