Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Salman Khan have revealed that they will collaborate on the former’s ambitious project “Inshallah,” which will star Alia Bhatt as the female lead. The romance drama’s release was set for 2019. However, it was reported the following year that the project had been put on hold due to creative disputes between Khan and Bhansali.
According to the most recent information, Bhansali intends to resurrect the project after a two-year hiatus. This time, however, it’s with Hrithik Roshan and Alia Bhatt.
According to a News18 report, a source stated, “Bhansali is currently working on Heera Mandi, a web series which has been in the making for some time now. Directed by Vibhu Puri, it is going to go on floors soon. On the other hand, the filmmaker is also working on Inshallah since he has finished Gangubai Kathiawadi and can focus on a new project.”
“Since it is a story of mature romance between a young girl and a much older guy, he feels Roshan and Bhatt would make a good pair. The actor has had several meetings with the filmmaker. He has liked the script but has requested for certain modifications. Bhansali is also reworking on the script,” the source added.
If the rumours are to be believed, Inshallah will be Hrithik Roshan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s second collaboration following Guzarish in 2010. According to the same article, Inshallah will begin construction in the second half of 2022 if all goes well. The creators’ official confirmation is still pending.
