The talented filmmaker desires to work with Amitabh Bachchan again – this time as a producer.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali has put the box-office debacle of his last film Saawariya behind and is presently busy directing a musical opera titled ‘Padmavati’ in Paris. But the filmmaker has also chalked out plans for his next Bollywood project.
Alas, Bhansali won’t be directing but producing the film which will be directed by his assistant Vibhu Puri. And Bhansali wants Mr. Bachchan to play the leading role.
Reportedly, Bhansali flew to Jaipur recently when Big B came there down from Shimla to be with sonny Abhishek Bachchan on his birthday in the first week of February.
In the meeting, Bhansali discussed the project with Big B and gave him a brief narration.
Mr. Bachchan is presently shooting Shoojit Sircar’s film in Shimla and will take a final call on Bhansali’s production after meeting Vibhu Puri upon his return to Mumbai.
Vibhu has graduated from Pune’s Film and Television Institute of India. He assisted Bhansali in ‘Saawariya’.
