The ambitious Bhansali project which never took off is now being revived…
Sanjay Leela Bhansali had quite a vision about Chenab Gandhi! He thought of making the film with Amitabh Bachchan, Vidya Balan and Rajeev Khandelwal in the leading roles. But the film got shelved as Bhansali moved on to other projects.
Now we hear that producer Smita Thackeray has decided to pump some life into Chenab Gandhi and bring it back from the dead! The producer says, “I plan to produce six to seven films this year, including Chenab Gandhi, under my new banner. Everything should be finalised by January 30.”
Smita wants Varun Dhawan and Parineeti Chopra to play the lead roles in the film as both the actors have exhibited great acting potential this past year. She adds, “Chenab Gandhi is all about acting and from what everybody in the industry says, I think Varun Dhawan and Parineeti Chopra are a perfect fit. I can see only these two in this set-up”.
While a source close to the Badlapur actor reveals that he has loved the script and is considering signing it now, confirmation by Pari is yet to be received. Parineeti has’t had the most successful year so a film to get her started in 2015 won’t be a bad thing. Varun, on the other hand is all set to amaze with Badlapur.
This would be the first time Varun and Pari will come together. Are you looking forward to this pairing?
