Sanjay Leela Bhansali a dear friend, will always be: Salman Khan

Superstar Salman Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's much-anticipated film In-shaa-allah may be shelved, but the actor says he still shares a great equation with the filmmaker.

The 53-year-old actor and the director announced earlier this year that they will be collaborating for a love story, also featuring Alia Bhatt, and the film will hit the theatres on Eid 2020. The project, however, was cancelled last month. When asked if he would like to work with Bhansali in future, Salman said, "Sanjay is a very dear friend of mine and he will always be.


'In-shaa-allah' means god willing. I don't think God was willing at this point of time." In-shaa-allah, which was a co-production between Salman and Bhansali's banners, would have marked the director-actor duo's first collaboration in two decades where Salman was suppose to play the lead.

Bhansali made his directorial debut with 1996's Khamoshi - The Musical, which starred Salman. The actor went on to feature in the director-producer's classic Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam in 1999 opposite Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Ajay Devgn.

He also made a cameo in Bhansali's Saawariya, which launched Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor.

The Divine Feminine: Prashasti Singh talks power, pressure, and laughter

Highlights:

  • Prashasti’s comedy comes from real-life stories, not just punchlines.
  • The show explores modern women chasing success but still feeling unfulfilled.
  • She quit a secure corporate job and jumped into comedy.
  • Stand-up made her stop being scared of talking to people.
  • People laugh together at the same everyday problems.

Prashasti Singh started her stand-up terrified of speaking in public. “I was very conscious of my language, my pronunciation, my accent. I thought stand-up wouldn’t be my thing,” she says. But her first open mic changed that. “It felt like I was among a bunch of sisters, a bunch of friends. I just forgot all my nervousness. It came out very naturally.”
