SRK and Aishwarya approached for Bajirao Mastani?

According to well placed sources in the Times of India and the Free Press Journal, SRK and Aishwarya have been approached for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's next, Bajirao Mastani, which begins shooting around June next year.

SRK to replace Salman

Says a source, "Initially, Bhansali was planning to offer the role of Bajirao to Salman Khan but Salman and he had a panga and now SLB's dropped the idea of doing it with Salman. Recently, he met Shah Rukh Khan and gave him a one-line narration. SRK was very excited and now the duo have planned to meet up soon for a proper narration."

ARB approached by Bhansali

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has been having a few visitors of late and one of them happens to be a certain filmmaker who has worked with her in two big hits of her life. The actress apparently met the director, who was not just paying her a visit to see how well she is and how her personal life is shaping up, but he has been discussing a film with her post her baby as well.

We are aware that Ash has committed to Rajkumar Santoshi to work in his film 'Ladies and Gentlemen', but then, the truth is that, 'Ladies and Gentlemen', you may hear of much bigger news soon after the chhota Bachchan is born and Ash is ready to get back under the arc lights again. Santoshi needs Abhishek also to work with him, but then Sanjay Leela Bhansali may have other plans. Oh, did we reveal the name of the other director by mistake? Anyway, lets hope no one is reading.

Suspending disbelief is one thing cremating it and then stabbing the ashes with a knife to make sure it's dead is something else entirely.

The makeup budget alone will sink the film.

Bhagjao Mastani is more apt for the title...

LOL... SRK as Bajirao... Mastani will pakka run away... 😆
