Actress Kajol, who was set to return to the silver screen after a gap of four years, has now opted out of her comeback project which was to be co-produced by her husband, actor Ajay Devgn. The makers have reportedly approached Ajay's Singham Returns leading lady Kareena Kapoor for the lead role.
Kajol, who has made her presence felt by her social sightings and humanitarian work, opted out of the film, leading newspaper Times of India reported. Meanwhile, Kajol was also offered Rensil D'Silva's TV show.
The film based on Dutch TV series Penoza will be directed by Ram Madhvani. Penoza is the story of Carmen who steps into the world of crime after her husband is murdered, to protect her children.
Kareena, who has worked with Kajol in Karan Johar's We Are Family, has liked the script but further details are yet to be finalised.
