While nothing has been officially confirmed, I can’t wait to see the magic that this trio creates.
When Bhansali Wanted To Work With SRK
Sanjay Leela Bhansali has been waiting to cast SRK for a long time now. He even offered period dramas Padmaavat and Bajirao Mastani to the actor, but it didn’t work out.
Then in 2021, it was reported that Bhansali was working on a movie titled Izhaar and wanted to cast SRK for the same. The story was based on a real-life incident where an Indian man cycled all the way to Norway to marry a Norwiergn girl. Talking about the movie, a source said, “Izhaar was a film that Bhansali wanted to do with SRK around four years ago. It’s a love story revolving around this couple – an Indian man and a Norwegian girl. It’s based on the real-life story of the guy who cycled all the way to Norway for love. Bhansali wanted to adapt that into a screenplay and has reworked the script again for SRK’s persual. Now it needs to be seen if Shah Rukh green lights it this time around.“
I hope everyhting works out and we get to watch yet another epic Sanjay Leela Bhansali romance!
