asin travels cattle class


Asin seems to be following in the footsteps of her former co-star Salman Khan, who is known to hop into rickshaws on impulse and even engage in antics like driving one late at night.

Recently, when Asin was heading to Madurai airport to catch a flight, she took up an unusual dare by her friends - to travel in a bullock cart.

A source close to Asin reveals, “It is a two-hour drive to Madurai airport from Kairaikudi. Asin was to catch a flight to Mumbai and was accompanied by three friends. On the way, they spotted a bullock cart and one thing led to another. When her friends challenged Asin to ride on it, she immediately agreed.”

But when Asin got out of the car and jumped on to the bullock cart, the owner was shocked to see the actor. “He initially thought that Asin just wanted to click some pictures, but when she asked to ride in the bullock cart, he was flabbergasted.

Since the flight was a little delayed, Asin and her friends had some time on hand, so they travelled in the bullock cart for over 25 minutes before getting back in the car,” adds the source.

Even more than the bullock cart owner, people travelling on that road were stunned to see the actress and stopped to click pictures. “Some of them came running to ask her for autographs. It was an adventurous ride for the actress and she enjoyed it thoroughly,” adds the source.

Confirmed  Asin’s spokesperson, “She has an adventurous streak and enjoyed the bullock cart ride.”

Asin opposite John



    Popular South Indian beauty Asin is reported to be the heroine opposite John Abraham in the Hindi remake of master filmmaker Gautham Menon's super hit cop story Khakha Khakha (Tamil), starring Suriya and his actress-wife Jyotika.
   
  The shooting of this untitled Hindi remake is all set to begin in May under the direction of Nishikant Kamath. The original director Gautam Menon was originally expected to direct the Hindi version, but he stepped out of the project for some reasons.
"Although Genelia was considered for the remake, they dropped the idea as John had already worked with Genelia in Hook Ya Crook and they wanted a fresh pairing. Asin has already worked with Vipul Shah in London Dreams so they decided to sign her. The film is important for John at this stage of his career as his last three films Ashayein, Hook ya Crook and Abbas Tyrewala’s next film have been put on hold for various reasons," a source close to the makers was quoted as saying.
