Not Ranveer Singh but Ranbir Kapoor to play the lead in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Baiju Bawra

Sanjay Leela Bhansali has announced two films that he will be directing. Gangubai Kathiawadi with Alia Bhatt is already started and he has planned to make the remake of Baiju Bawra.

Ranbir Kapoor has been locked down for the main lead in the movie.

A source revealed “Ranveer and SLB were discussing to collaborate on a film, but right now that can’t happen. Bhansali will reunite with Ranbir on this one. There are two main male leads in the film, one is of Baiju and the other of Tansen. RK will be playing Baiju’s role in the period drama. Recently, he even went to meet the filmmaker at his office where he verbally agreed to do the project. The actor’s team is now working out the modalities.” 

The source continued to say  “They aren’t locking his dates as of now because they need to lock the other actors for the film and if all goes well, the film will only go on floors in the second half of 2021. Bhansali will wrap up work on Gangubai first and then plan the pre-production for this. RK, on the other hand, will start shooting for Luv Ranjan’s film and then begins Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s next around early 2021.” 

Ranbir has collaborated with Sanjay Leela Bhansali after 13 years. Ranbir’s debut movie Sawariya was by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
