Exclusive deets on the project
It is notable that Pinkvilla has consistently provided exclusive updates to our readers regarding this collaboration. Recently, a source shared with us, “Sanjay Leela Bhansali was fascinated to make a pure love story that stands the test of time and this one falls right in the zone. It's a timeless love story with three principal characters played by Ranbir, Alia, and Vicky.”
He added, “The maverick filmmaker is looking to take the film on floors around November 2024 with a marathon schedule. The yet-to-be-titled film is an original love story set against the backdrop of War. It's an homage by SLB to the 1964 classic, Sangam directed by Raj Kapoor.”
Furthermore, providing insights into the cast, the insider had disclosed, “It's a great story that got all three stalwarts excited. It's a casting coup pulled off by SLB in such a short span, and that's purely based on the power of his screenplay. Rarely are 4 of the top names from the fraternity excited by the same subject, and it has happened this time with SLB, Ranbir, Alia, and Vicky signing on the project.”
Fascinatingly, the film Saawariya, which marked Ranbir Kapoor's Bollywood debut in 2007, brought together the director-actor pair, and now, almost 17 years later, they are set to collaborate again for this exciting venture.
