Shahid Kapoor has three films lined up in his pipeline. He will next be seen in directors Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah’s Impossible Love Story, Aditya Nimbalkar’s Bull, and a remake of the 1964 film Woh Kaun Thi? However, looks like the actor also has another film with director Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Buzz is that, the duo is keen to collaborate for the second time after the massive sucess of the 2018 film Padmaavat.
A source close to the development informed Pinkvilla, shared that Shahid and Bhansali have been talking since a couple of months for a very special film. “Shahid and SLB have mutual respect for each other and are discussing the idea of collaborating on a special project. It’s an out and out masala entertainer, and the script has been completely developed by Bhansali’s team of writers. The filmmaker has been actively working towards casting the film over the last few months, and is having detailed conversations with Shahid on the permutation and combinations with regards to film.”
The source also added that if it materialises, the film will go on floors on the first half of 2024. “It’s in very early stages of discussion at the moment and there is no director associated to the script. Once Shahid agrees in principle on the script, Bhansali will scout for a director, as he wishes to get a top director on board the project. It’s a very commercial script, on the lines of two other films produced by SLB, Rowdy Rathore and Gabbar Is Back. SLB and team are hopeful on Shahid to come on board the film.”
Sanjay Leela Bhansali is currently busy with the post production of Heera Mandi which stars Richa Chadha, Sanjeeda Shaikh, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari and Manisha Koirala. He is also busy with Baiju Bawra with Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt which will be going on floors in 2024.
An offical confirmation on the Shahid Kapoor-Sanjay Leela Bhansali project is awaited.
