Though filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next directorial venture Inshallah is yet to mount the shooting floors, it has already become one of the most-talked-about projects in the tinsel town. The hugely anticipated movie reunites Bhansali with superstar Salman Khan after a massive gap of two decades as the duo last worked together on Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam in 1999. Besides Khan, the film also stars Alia Bhatt who teams up with both of them for the first time in her career.
When Bhansali announced the names of Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt as lead actors of his film Inshallah, many may have thought that was the main cast of the film. However, if latest reports are to be believed, the high-profile film will have one more female lead besides the Badrinath Ki Dulhania (2017) star.
A source close to the development reveals to an entertainment portal that the second female lead will have a pivotal role in the film, while Salman and Alia play the lead roles. “Most of Bhansali movies have had a third lead angle to it, be it Bajirao Mastani (2015), Padmaavat (2018) or Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. Inshallah will be following the same league and will see a relatively young actress play a second female lead in the love drama by Salman and Alia. Though Salman and Alia play the lead roles, the second lead will have a pivotal role as well,” informs the source.
Inshallah is expected to roll the camera as soon as superstar Salman Khan wraps up the final schedule of his much-anticipated film Dabangg 3 with Sonakshi Sinha. Apart from India, some portions of the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial will be shot abroad also. Inshallah is slated to hit the marquee on Eid 2020.
