Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Inshallah, starring Salman Khan in the lead role, appears to have been shelved. A recent report claims that Salman’s supposed demand of Rs 100 crore as fee led to the shelving.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  • Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Inshallah is apparently not happening anymore
  • A recent report claims that Salman Khan’s supposed demand of Rs 100 crore as fee led to the shelving
  • Another reason behind it could be Salman’s wish to have a say in the film’s script, the report says

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Inshallah, headlined by Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt, does not seem to be happening anymore! The romantic drama was being eagerly looked forward to by fans, especially because it was going to bring together Bhansali and Salman, who were reuniting 20 years after the release of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (1999), their last full-fledged cinematic collaboration. The film would have also marked the first on-screen union of Salman and Alia. But unfortunately, it appears to have been shelved now.

A source in a has been quoted as saying that Inshallah had already gone on floors and that Alia shot for four days for a song in the film at Mehboob Studios in Mumbai. It further said that the film had a budget of nearly Rs 150 crore as it was to be shot in parts of North India and USA. While it is being speculated that the incomplete script and date issues are some of the reasons behind the film getting shelved, the source said it was because of Salman’s remuneration.

The source said, “Bhansali is producing the film, along with Salman Khan Films and the filmmaker wanted a continuous stretch of 120 days to complete the movie, starting from September, and with the filmmaker everyone knows, that can get extended to many more days. Salman and the filmmaker are working together after 12 years as Saawariya was their last movie together, Salman stated reasonably that he had Big Boss 13, and his other brand commitments to complete but Bhansali was adamant. Everyone including Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are used to his style of working and give away their dates for even a year. But Salman could not do that, so he apparently asked Rs 100 crore as his fees (which included his satellite and digital rights) as compensation.”

“In a Rs 150-crore budget with Rs 100 crore taken by lead actor and some more as the filmmaker’s fees, what would remain as profit? SLB felt if Salman was getting such a steep hike he deserved more too. A big financier is said to have bought rights of Inshallah for distribution just a few days ago for Rs 195 crores (Rs 165 crores plus additonal Rs 25 crores for P&A) but yet they were not able to sort out their creative and financial disagreements,” it said further.
