While shooting an ad for a shoe brand in Bangkok,Prabhudheva and Virat Kohli seemed to hit it off. The choreographer-turned-director,first convinced and then taught the cricketer a few dance moves. He is said to have followed that up with the idea of launching the cricketer as an actor. Though Kohli has not committed to it,he is not averse to the idea either,given the swooning effect his rugged charm has on women. After all,having boosted the careers of Salman Khan (Wanted) and Akshay Kumar (Rowdy Rathore),Prabhudheva is among the top filmmakers of Bollywood today. And a film with him could be a dream launch for Kohli.

Their fears were well-founded. This is established by the promo of Heroine,launched in Mumbai on Wednesday.

It remains to be seen if Kapoor will make the film worth a watch with her performance.
