The Kick actor will be seen opposite Hrithik in Sajid Nadiadwala’s upcoming film Jacqueline Fernandez’s hit avatar in Kick is the talk of the town. At a special screening of the film, Karan Johar was heard gushing about her to Salman Khan. It is learnt that he told KJo to sign her. A quick wit, the director shot back, “I would love to cast and even manage her!” He will have to wait, though. Post signing Kick , her career has taken off. She has Roy with Ranbir Kapoor. She also has a three-film contract with filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala, who has finalised her for his next film with Hrithik Roshan. Jacqueline confirms, “I have signed a three-film contract with Sajid. I have worked twice with him as a producer — in Housefull (she was in the item number Dhanno), in Housefull 2 and now, in his directorial debut Kick . I can’t think of a more amazing person to work with. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. Now I can’t wait to work with him again! Both Sajid and Salman have taken a huge risk in casting me for the film. They decided to go with me and I couldn’t disappoint them. So the biggest high for me was when they both told me that they were proud of me. I achieved what I set out to do.” She continues, “I prayed really hard for this movie — praying that I would be acknowledged as an actor. After going through so much in the last couple of years, I am now finally getting somewhere. All these years, I got a lukewarm response… I was stuck in the middle — neither in the A-list category nor a newcomer anymore. There was no appreciation or criticism for me in the reviews, good or bad. I kept asking myself — will my performance be appreciated and accepted?”
