VOTE! Who should play Sati opposite Hrithik's Shiva?

We asked you, dear reader, if Hrithik Roshan -- who's been reportedly chosen to play Lord Shiva in the film adaptation of Immortals Of Meluha -- will do a good job of it.

And now, fresh reports claim that hunt for a suitable female lead to play Shiva's wife Sati has begun in earnestness.

While several names are vying for the coveted role, we decided to ask you, who YOU think would be most suitable for this role.

Vote for your favourite at the end of the slide show!

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

One of the top contenders in the race, Ash is a very natural choice for this role. Her mythical turn as Sita in Mani Ratnam's Raavan is still fresh in fans' memory and that might win her the job.

Besides, it'll be interesting to see her team up again with her Dhoom costar.

Deepika Padukone

The statuesque actress has a face that has much scope for histrionics and it'd be refreshing to see her play a mythological character and star opposite Hrithik Roshan for the first time.

Deepika also happens to be one of the frontrunners among the popular choices that are being considered for the role.

Vidya Balan

After portraying strong characters in her films, Vidya Balan seems to be the most popular contender in the list.

Like Deepika, Vidya has not been cast opposite Hrithik Roshan either. It wouldn't hurt to see Mr Body be cast opposite the voluptuous actress.

Priyanka Chopra

After the success of Agneepath, Priyanka Chopra and Hrithik Roshan are being billed as the new hit jodi on screen. So it's not surprising why the makers are keen to pair them again for this mega project.

Katrina Kaif

Watching an exotic-looking actress play a mythological character? Now there's a clincher!

Hrithik and Katrina make a beautiful pair as evidenced in Zoya Akhtar's Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. It'd be a visual treat to see Kat all decked up in clothes that represent that era.

 

Kareena Kapoor

After the whole weight loss tamasha, Kareena Kapoor is in full bloom. She embodies the Indian woman in her most beautiful form.

Ra.One may be a sci-fi film, but Kareena's Chammak Challo brought some divine charm to the film with that one song alone.

 

Sonakshi Sinha

Actress Sonakshi Sinha struck gold with her gaon-ki-gori act in Dabangg and will be seen playing a village belle in two of her new films.

Given her Indian looks and towering frame, she'd be the most natural choice for this part.

Mahie Gill

This actress is more drawn towards performance-based characters and does a pretty good job with the roles she's given.

It's be fun to watch her collaborate on a big banner film and shine through. For an earthy beauty like her, we think playing Sati will come naturally to this sassy lady.

Kangna Ranaut

She could be a draw too. Only if she brushes up her diction, she should be good to go.

The wild curls have been tamed and she'd played a small towner in Tanu Weds Manu. That's prepping up enough.

Rani Mukerji

Hardly a stranger to period films -- she starred in films like Paheli and Mangal Pandey: The Rising -- Rani Mukerji has been out of the spotlight for too long.

It will certainly spice things up if she's roped in to play the female lead.
