While the media speculation regarding the female casting of Karan Malhotra and Karan Johar's coveted love story titled Shuddhi has continued for months, fans will be glad to hear, Kareena Kapoor has been finalized as the leading lady.

Karan Johar confirmed the news saying that he is very excited to see the two stars together in this intense love story that has a reincarnation theme. He believes that Kareena and Hrithik will bring in the desired intensity to the film.

Karan Malhotra said, "Yes, finally we have confirmed Kareena for the role. I feel she is a stunning looking girl and she suites the character best. I am sure she will do justice to the film. I am not allowed to talk much about my film, but all I can assure you is Kareena and Hrithik will be seen in a never before role in 'Shuddhi'. I know it's the most cliche line ever, but I can assure you on that."

He added, "It was not a conscious decision (to cast them together), it was just a coincidence. They both look lovely together, the script demanded them and I am lucky to have them on board,"

Kareena-Hrithik last outing together was 2003 release "Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon". They were also seen together in "Mujhse Dosti Karoge!" and "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham" and "Yaadein".
