Deepika set for another double treat

After Om Shanti Om, Deepika Padukone will be seen in yet another double role in Nikhil Advani's upcoming film.

Director Nikhil Advani, who has been shooting with hectic celerity in China for his new action-comedy Chandni Chowk To China, confirms that Deepika Padukone is playing double role in the movie.

"That's right," confirmed Advani. "Deepika is doing a double role in my film."

This would be Deepika's second double role after her debut Om Shanti Om

When quizzed him about the music of the film, Advani told IANS: "While the rest of the score by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, with a little help from Kailash Kher, is completely original, we've used Bappi Lahiri's Bombay se aaya mera dost from the film Aap Ki Khatir. Bappi has reworked and re-sung the song."

Advani's directorial debut Kal Ho Naa Ho was a runaway success at the box office, but his second film Salaam-e-Ishq was letdown.

Chandani Chowk to China is a mega-budget film and is produced by Warner Brothers and Rohan Sippy.
