Asin is all set to star in the master film maker Ashutosh Gowariker’s Khelein Hum Jee Jaan! The actress was called in by Ashutosh for a story narration, sources say, and she agreed to star in the project almost immediately. The director has directed some of the best Bollywood films including Lagaan, Swades, and Jodha Akbar and this was reason enough for Asin to lap up the offer. Abhishek Bachchan has been signed up to play the male lead. Sources declare that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was initially approached to star in Khelein Hum Jee Jaan but she could not make it for some unknown reason.
