Way to go! Atif Aslam replaces Shahid Kapoor in major event

So Atif Aslam has definitely become a sensation in Bollywood, but enough to replace actors like Shahid Kapoor? We had no idea.

According to sources, Atif Aslam has been chosen to accompany Ranbir Kapoor in his world tour, among many other Bollywood celebrities. Ranbir’s dad, Rishi Kapoor, wants to establish a certain image for his son in the West; therefore this tour has come about so Ranbir can go spread his charm around the world after being in the limelight for all the wrong reasons.

The exciting part is that Shahid had been chosen for this tour, but now Atif has gotten the part, without the reasons for this change being explained. Rishi Kapoor, the 70 per cent producer of Ranbir’s first world tour said, "unfortunately Shahid Kapoor can’t accompany us. We’ve got Atif Aslam instead. He’s a huge draw among Asians abroad. The show will be youth-oriented.”

Other artists on this tour include Katrina Kaif, Priyanka Chopra, Bipasha Basu and Malaika Arora Khan will be part of the tour where as a fifth girl is yet to be finalized. Apparently even Deepika Padukone had been interested for this tour but after the Koffee with Karan fiasco, she was deliberately left out from the team of gorgeous Bollywood beauties.
