Sanjay Leela Bhansali's next to star Ranveer Singh - Alia Bhatt?.

This is the casting that Sanjay Leela Bhansali
wanted for his next film. Regrettably the
pair is going to be seen in Zoya Akhtar's
Gullie Boyz. And Bhansali is reluctant to
repeat the pair so soon after.
Says a source close to the development,
"Ideally, Sanjay Bhansali would've liked to
cast his favourite hero Ranveer Singh with
Alia Bhatt whose work he really likes. While
he has not given up on the idea of pairing
the two he is sceptical about repeating the
two actors no matter how different his film
may be in theme, mood and treatment from
Zoya Akhtar's.
Many years ago Sanjay Bhansali had chosen
Salman Khan and Kareena Kapoor to play
Bajirao Mastani. But the couple went and
did Priyadarshan's Kyun Ki before Bajirao
Mastani could be launched.
Bhansali aborted the idea of pairing
Salman-Kareena in Bajirao Mastani. Years
later the film was made with Ranveer and
Deepika.

Alia's PR or Ranveer's? Isn't Salman already signed for SLB's next?

I do feel DP is not interested in coming back to SLB, even if SLB does consider her his muse.

Wasn't he supposed to make a contemporary romance or comedy with DeepVeer? It would have been a welcomed changed (the genre).

Alia n Ranveer have good chemistry. SLB repeated DeepVeer thrice (technically twice) that too back to back so don't think he is bothered about repetitive pairing.!

I dont see how Alia fits in SLB's world of cinema, but then she is competent enough to prove herself in that space as well

SLB was suppose to launch Alia in a story about a child bride back when she was 11 so maybe that is the project?

what a downgrade from deepika to alia.. if the role is suitable, of that of a teenager or something than ok she suits 😆
