Sanjay Leela Bhansali has decided to cast Kareena Kapoor in his next film after Guzaarish. Apparently, they have been itching to work together for many years now. Right after Devdas, Bhansali wanted to cast Kareena opposite Abhishek Bachchan in a film on the life of Mahatma Gandhi's son Harilal.
That project fell through and Bhansali began planning his ambitious historical, Bajirao Mastani, with Salman Khan and Kareena. In the meantime however, Kareena and Salman did the unthinkable by signing Priyadarshan's Kyon Ki, thereby killing Bhansali's plans.

Then came Black. Kareena was a very strong contender for the protagonist's role. But her family's strained relations with the Bachchans at that point (with Kareena's sister Karisma's engagement with Abhishek falling through) ruined her chances of playing the lead.
The Kareena-Bhansali collaboration would invariably run into one stumbling block after another. A source close to both commented, "It was almost as though fate planned to bring them together for something really major."
Though details of Bhansali's new project are not available at the moment, he is believed to be casting Kareena as one of the leads in his kotha epic Heera Mandi. According to Bhansali's associates though, the director has different plans for Kareena.
While Bhansali remained unavailable for comment, Kareena confirmed that she is indeed set to work with the director. She says, "Sanjay and I have been missing working with each other for many years and are now talking about roles. I am meeting Sanjay again after I return from Morocco from the shooting of Agent Vinod."

Everytime you confirm such projects, they get shelved
Remember Lajjo and Bajirao Mastani
