One of the most awaited films of 2020 is Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi which stars Alia Bhatt in the lead role. The film went on the floors a few weeks ago, and now, the makers are all set to launch the first look of the movie.

Along with a motion poster unveiling the logo of the film, Bhansali Productions took to Instagram to inform everyone about it. They posted, “The wait ends and the excitement begins now ♥️?? Get ready to dive into her world, first look out tomorrow. #GangubaiKathiawadi, in cinemas, 11 September 2020! @aliaabhatt #SanjayLeelaBhansali @prerna_singh6 @jayantilalgadaofficial @penmovies.”

Gangubai Kathiawadi was a brothel owner and had connections in the underworld. It is said that many of her clients were gangsters. Reportedly, SLB’s film is based on the book Mafia Queens of Mumbai written by Hussain Zaidi.

Well, clearly Alia Bhatt will be donning a never-seen-before avatar in the movie and we are super excited for the first look which will be out tomorrow.

Alia and SLB were supposed to team up for Inshallah. But, Salman Khan opted out of the film, and later the filmmaker decided to put Inshallah on a backburner. He started working on Gangubai Kathiawadi and roped in Alia for it. Reportedly, Rani Mukerji was SLB’s first choice to play the lead role in the film.

Gangubai Kathiawadi is slated to hit the screens on 11th September 2020.

Apart from Gangubai Kathiawadi, Alia will be seen in movies like Sadak 2, Brahmastra, RRR and Takht. 2020 is surely a treat for Alia Bhatt fans.
