Their first film, Gully Boy, is yet to mount the shooting floor, but it seems that director Rohit Shetty finds Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh’s pairing so irresistible that he has signed both the actors in his forthcoming film Simmba. While Ranveer Singh has signed the flick on the dotted lines, Alia’s name hasn't been announced officially.
However, if well-known film trade analyst Ramesh Bala is to be believed, Alia has joined the cast. He took to Twitter to announce the news. He mentioned, “@aliaa08 (Alia Bhatt) to pair up with @RanveerOfficial (Ranveer Singh) in #Simmba”
Alia and Ranveer have yet not done any film together, but their pair is more popular than many onscreen jodis of Bollywood, and all credit goes to their outrageously funny and quirky MakeMyTrip commercials.
If the duo comes together for Rohit Shetty's Simmba, which is an official remake of Tamil film Temper, it will be their second collaboration after Zoya Akhtar's Gully Boy.
Currently, Ranveer Singh is waiting for the release of his gobsmackingly epic film Padmavati with Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor, while Alia has just wrapped up Meghna Gulzar’s Raazi and is now preparing for the first instalment of Karan Johar's trilogy, Brahmastra.
