After Shraddha Kapoor was told to walk out of the Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Gabbar’, there was a big question that now who will be replacing the actress.

But, now there is a buzz around that actress Shruti Haasan is being confirmed to star opposite Akshay in the film.

Shruti was the first choice of the makers. She was approached for the film before Sharddha, but she couldn’t commit to it due to lack of bulk dates.

A source says that Shruti will speak about the film after the producers make the official announcement.
