If the buzz is to be believed, Asin, Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone are in race to bag 2 States film. All the three have good relation with Sajid and are likely to bag the offer. The film is about the love story between Punjabi boy and South Indian girl.
So Asin and Deepika would be in contention as they suit the role due to their southern roots. Asin has vast experience of doing more south films and hence she might be leading the race. Watch out for official confirmation on this.
