Sanjay Leela Bhansali is planning a film with Hrithik Roshan and his Saawariya hero, Ranbir Kapoor. It is reliably learnt that the filmmaker is in talks with both the actors.
Bhansali, who was was in Paris directing the musical Padmavati, returned to Mumbai last week 'Bhansali's back' (HiTLIST, March 31)
Says a source, "Although Sanjay was put off with the response he got post Saawariya, it has not affected the story-teller. He was meant to start his Heera Mandi project after Saawariya but now he wants to put that on the backburner. He has a two-hero, one-heroine script ready and that is the one he wants to start early next year."
The source adds, "Bhansali has already sent a copy to Hrithik Roshan. On the other hand, Ranbir has spoken to Sanjay about the project and is going to be a part of this project too. The film is also said to be backed by Sony Pictures after the two made Saawariya," the source concludes.
Says Ranbir Kapoor, "I have not been approached." Rakesh Roshan simply said, "I have no idea about any such development." The source further adds, "The concerned parties are not supposed to reveal anything till it is finalised."
