Rhea Kapoor just picked the main lead of her upcoming chick flick, and it's not her sister Sonam Kapoor.

In Veera Di Shaadi, she's cast Kareena Kapoor in the lead, and Sonam will play a role secondary to her. How's that for a first!

According to sources quoted by DNA India, "Rhea’s chick flick, Veera Di Shaadi, will revolve around a big fat Punjabi wedding. The essence of the film will be about four girls on a journey from Delhi to Europe and it will culminate in Veera’s wedding. Kareena loved the script and the idea of acting in a chick flick for the first time."

The source went on to dish about how Kareena, still basking in the success of Ki and Ka, swiped the coveted lead from Sonam:

"[Kareena] made sure that hers had to be the meatiest role and that the story revolves around her character. Kareena is being very choosy about her roles now.

"Also, she adds star value to the film, which otherwise only has Sonam. It just makes the project much bigger. Rhea had to bow down to her diktat and inform Sonam, who is a sensible girl. She agreed to play the second lead."

The movie is said to be inspired by The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and also stars Swara Bhaskar. Its shoot begins in July.
