Deepika Padukone is in high demand now.

After giving big hits like Yeh Jawaani Hai Dewaani and Ram Leela, last year, she has became the apple of every film-maker's eye. Sources believe that, she was recently offered a role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani but turned it down as she had already committed dates for Karan Johar's Shuddhi. The actress has just completed shooting for Farah Khan's Happy New Year and will also be doing Imtiaz Ali's next and Shoojit Sircar's Piku.

With so many projects lined up Deepika was left with no option but to say no to Bhansali. Meanwhile, we hear, Ajay Devgn and Priyanka will be a part of this film. The third lead to be roped in will be Kareena Kapoor.

However, official announcements are yet to be made.
