Prerna Singh, CEO at Bhansali Productions Pvt Ltd (BPPL), revealed that the banner has signed Meezaan for three films. “When I saw Meezaan for the first time in the office, the immediate thought that crossed my mind was such a versatile face. In this exciting phase of the industry, there couldn’t have been a better time but now to launch him. We have signed him for three films and continue our aim at BPPL to give the industry more talent.”
Talking about Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next directorial venture, the ace filmmaker is teaming up with superstar Salman Khan for a love story. Confirming the development, Prerna said, “Yes, Salman Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali are reuniting after 19 years for a love story.
