She was supposed to sign a Yash Raj Film (YRF) opposite rumoured beau Ranveer but instead decided to work with Shahid in a rom-com by Sabbir Khan.

"Sonakshi was offered a film opposite Ranveer Singh by YRF. It was supposed to be directed by Habib Faisal. However, Sonakshi has now decided to take on Sajid Nadiadwala's project instead. She has already given all her dates in January to Sajid," a source told Mumbai Mirror.

"When it came down to her career, Sonakshi decided to opt for Shahid over Ranveer. She has given the same dates to Sajid that were required by YRF for the Ranveer starrer," added the source.

Sonakshi and Shahid will be paired for the first time. "Sajid Nadiadwala has written the story and the screenplay of the film himself. Kambakkht Ishq director Sabbir Khan will direct it. Earlier too, Sabbir was to direct Heer Ranjha starring Shahid," the source told the tabloid.
