Initially, Alia was offered Inshallah but due to her busy schedule, the actress couldn’t say yes to the SLB film. Alia was supposed to shoot for Takht and her dates weren’t free. Kriti was then offered the role in Inshallah and she readily accepted it. But then Takht’s schedule wrap got shifted and Alia was ready to join Bhansali for Inshallah. The role was finally given to Alia with a promise to Kriti that she will be given another role in SLB’s next film.
However, a source told Bollywood Hungama that Kriti has not yet been approached by SLB’s team for any film. The source said, “Kriti Sanon has not been approached for anything from Bhansali’s side. She is doing Mimi, Housefull 4and Panipatonly as of now.” Now, all we can do is to wait and see what these two have to say about this whole development.
