After Alia Bhatt’s Gangubai Kathiawadi, Sanjay Leela Bhansali announces Baiju Bawra for Diwali 2021

Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali already has plans for Diwali next year - he will make his ambitious project, Baiju Bawra. The cast is yet to be announced.

Diwali marked a double celebration for director Sanjay Leela Bhansali who on Sunday announced his next directorial venture- the musical saga, Baiju Bawra.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali will begin work on Baiju Bawra after she is done with Alia Bhatt’s film.

The film is slated to hit the theatre on Diwali 2021, after the release of Alia Bhatt starrer, Gangubai Kathiawadi on September 11, 2020. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the news on his Twitter account. Earlier this month, the ‘Padmavat’ director announced his big project, Gangubai Kathiawadi.

Alia was supposed to star opposite Bollywood’s ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ Salman Khan for ‘Inshallah.’ However, the film was shelved last month following creative differences between the director and Salman Khan.
