Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Salman Khan
Over the last two days, a lot is being said about Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Inshallah. This much awaited project was to see the reunion of two power houses – Salman Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The film was also to see the fresh pairing of Salman and Alia Bhatt.
On Monday, Salman twitted that the release of Inshallah has been postponed:
The film with Sanjay Leela Bhansali is pushed but I will still see you all on Eid, 2020. Insha-Allah!!

Bhansali Productions later tweeted that they are not going ahead with the project:
Bhansali Productions has decided to not go ahead with In-shaa-Allah for now… Further announcement will be out soon… God willing🙏🏻@prerna982

But now we have heard some interesting news. A source says that SLB has invested a whole year in the film hence Inshallah will not get shelved.
The source says one fact that emerges from the haze of hypothesis, which I can most definitely share, is that Inshallah will be made.
A source close to the project says,
“There is no question of shelving the project. Sanjay Bhansali has invested a year of his life preparing to shoot what he feels is one of the purest love stories to have been made in this country. He cannot let it go.”
Speaking about Alia Bhatt, who was to play the female lead in the project, the source adds,
“It was her dream to work with SLB. There is no way she can bear the thought of that dream being shattered.”
The search for the lead actor is still going on. Only time will tell who will fill the place left vacant by Salman Khan.
