Ranveer Singh – Deepika Padukone again in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next?

After the success of ‘Ram Leela’ and ‘Bajirao Mastani’, acclaimed filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali is likely to sign Ranveer Singh as the lead hero of his ‘most ambitious’ film to date.

While reliable sources confirm Ranveer presence in the film, there are reports that Deepika Padukone too has been approached to play the female lead.

“Sanjayji spoke to Deepika about his project during the shoot of Bajirao Mastani and she seemed excited at the prospect then. She will mostly agree to play the part. Just that with Bhansali productions, one has to be able to commit a large chunk of exclusive dates, which is not always very easy” a source was quoted as saying.

Last week, Sanjay Leela Bhansali announced his career’s biggest film which is said to be made on a budget of 125-150 crore. The film is targeting a Christmas release next year, as the makers have booked December 15 2017.

Two other films – Aanand L Rai’s ambitious film with Shah Rukh Khan (another film that is being made on a massive budget) and Rajkumar Hirani’s Sanjay Dutt  biopic (not officially confirmed) are also scheduled to likely to release during the Christmas weekend.

The star cast announcement will be made soon.

  • Let this film clash with Srk’s film with Anand rai.
    Bajirao thrashed Dilwale
    and history will repeat.

  • I think salman had rejected this one may be due to lack of dates that”s why sanjay compelled to cast ranveer again … we can expect good material again from slb after ramleela and bm ..good luck…

  • Srk vs Slb.I want to tell slb that not every day z your your day.Just as u remember Bajirao vs dilwale don’t forget OSO vs Saawariya.

  • amir or salman should go on crismas 2017 n clash with bhansali. so real star power of khans will be shown. im sure bhansali cannot beat salman or amir.

  • salman booked eid (with kabir n deepika)n diwali both next yr.
    if he postpone his diwali release fr frnd ajays sons of sardar then he can clash on crismas.
    othrwise clash is on with ajay himself.
    may be ajay cn postpone to october or crismas.
    aftr 2 yrs to dangal amir may book crismas again.
    srk might hav to settle fr small festive or non holyday
    OR HE CAN GO ON REVANGE SAGA NEXT CHRISMAS.
    too much fun…
    best senario will be for ranveer as he will take big steps towards superstardom.

  • Clash with Rajkumar hirani is not good for healthhhhhealthhhh bhansal ji aap best ho par Raju ji greatest hain

  • SLB is a great director. And with Ranveer and Deepika it shall be a big movie.

    Lots of respect for SLB. Has delivered excellent movies like Black, Devdas, HDDS, BM, etc. Guzarish and Ram Leela were quite good too. But his top 3 for me would be Black, Devdas and HDDS.

    And finally looking forward to SRK n Anand Rai movie releasing on the xmas and let the others release too.

  • Ranveer is the next generation superstar no doubt, let’s see who gonna be his competitor varun & Sid r 2 front runner among all, Ranbir Kapoor & sahid Kapoor these 2 have no chance, both are talented but damn boring on big screen it’s really tough to tolerate both sahid & Ranbir on big screen; eg-Tamasha was a good movie but it’s boring like hell very tough to tolerate Sahid & Ranbir on theatre. Let’s see among Ranveer shing, Siddharth & varun who gonna dominate post khan Era.

  • worst news of the day now i am getting bore to see ranveer deepika again n again this bhansali should cast some faces which are bigger star than ranveer

  • Get ready for a massacre of all records on box office guys. The movie needs to be good though. Nobody should dare to challenge this film, i repeat nobody.

  • Ranveer singh did not get wah wahi like ranbir kapoor and varun dhawan and he show his acting talent tops youngistan nd I m sure he will conquer khans

  • It’s impossible that 3 big films release on the same date…and even Aamir will probably target Christams 2017 so some films will have to be postponed. Bhansali’s films take many month to be shot, I don’t think it will come on time. And Ranbir Kapoor isn’t in a position to clash anyone. So Christmas 2017 will be either SRK or Aamir…

  • He want to decieve urdience again with another so call ambixious project. This time I will never back sanjay leela. Most boring thing is the cast ranveer and deepika. This time i will surely back shah rukh and acclaim anand rai

  • What the hell is happening to the filmmakers, they all are running after the same hit formula. Bajrangi Bhaijaan worked as an emotional film then Sallu Miyan started referring Prem Ratan Dhan Payo as an emotional film and now again Kabir Khan and Salman Khan; these two fools are going for an emotional film. In the beginning when this film was announced then I was eager to know what the film is about but I later wanted to kill both of them when I came to know that again they will make an emotional film after the success of Bajrangi Bhaijaan. Majhdaar will be an under performer. Now Sanjay Leela Bhansali (SLB) is again casting the same old hit pair. GROW UP FOOLS, OLD THINGS DO NOT WORK NOWADAYS. This pair should be roped after 5-7 years like Shah and Kajol. Both the films will be under performers commercially and critically. Even Alia-Varun pairing is boring and irritating. Alia and Shraddha will struggle for their existence if they continue to do the same roles. Sonakshi is on the safe side righT now because she appeals to the masses but she too should start doing different roles.
