Sanjay Leela Bhansali signs Harman Bawej

He does not have a single film release under his belt yet, but Harman Baweja is the chosen favourite for some of the biggest and finest film makers of the country. And the latest is Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

Bhansali's production house will be making a period film, Chenab Gandhi and Harman has been chosen to play the pivotal character opposite none other than Amitabh Bachchan. Harman is under a media embargo and cannot talk of this prestigious project.

This offer comes on the heel of Ashutosh Gowarikar's next, where he will be seen once again with Priyanka Chopra. Harman's Love Story 2050 releases next Friday alongwith Imran Khan's Jaane Tu.. And even though Harman has had to cancel his big premiere plans, he is not upset. It has been learnt that Aamir Khan has personally called up actors from the film fraternity to attend the premiere. This has been followed up by sms'. That's not all, he has visited Abhishek Bachchan at his house, Jalsa late in the night, post Bachchan's pack up after shooting for Dostana. Aamir has also called upon the senior Bachchan separately, while he has spoken to Ash over the phone.

The competition between the two new comers seems to be really hotting up prior to their big debuts.. but it looks like that Harman Baweja has marched way ahead of the competition if we go by his line up of films.
