If the news going in bollywood is to be believed than Hrithik Roshan was the lead actor in 7 khoon maaf. 7 khoon maaf is the most talked film in bollywood. It is directed by Vishal Bhardwaj. This is heroine oriented film. In this film Priyanka is show to killing her seven husbands.

Originally the script of the film was hero oriented. After writing the film Vishal though of Hrithik in the lead role but due to some difference of opinion, it couldn't materialize. After this Vishal again re wrote the film & it is now heroine oriented film.

This film is based on Ruskin Bond's story 'Sushan's Seven Husband.' Vishal re wrote the story keeping in mind Hrithik as actor. But it couldn't materialize so now Vishal is going with the original story & Priyanka is in main role. Priyanka is happy to get type of good film. She is happy that problem happened with Hrithik & Vishal otherwise she would not have got this film.

Source closer to the story says the reason for the problem. 'Actually Vishal wanted to sign Hrithik for the film. But both of them could not agree on the plot and character of the film. Finally they separated saying will work together in future. After this incident, Vishal decided than rather contacting any other actor he will go with the original story which is heroine oriented & signed priyanka. As such Vishal loves to make heroine centered film but this type of films gets very bad response at box office.'


The first look of Vishal Bhardwaj’s 7 Khoon Maaf is intriguing. After Aitraaz, once again Priyanka Chopra will be seen in a negative role.

The film is a dark comedy based on Ruskin Bond’s Susanna’s Seven Husbands and the story revolves around Sussane and her journey to find true love, which results in her marrying seven times.

Naseeruddin Shah, John Abraham, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Irrfan, Annu Kapoor, Vivaan Shah (Naseeruddin’s youngest son) and Russian actor Aleksandr Dyachenko play the seven husbands.
