Priyanka Chopra’s fans back in India are waiting to see their favourite actor in a Bollywood film soon. And the buzz about her working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali in Gustakhiyan only made her fans excited. But a few days ago, the hopes of Bhansali-Chopra collaboration dashed when the news of her opting out of the film broke.
But in a recent interview to Priyanka Chopra’s mom Madhu Chopra revealed that Priyanka hasn’t opted out as she never signed on the dotted lines. “Priyanka was no doubt in talks with Bhansali, but the two couldn’t fit their time schedules to discuss the film. The question of co-producing would have come in only at a later stage. As of now, nothing has gone forward,” said Madhu.
At the same time, Madhu revealed that it was a mere speculation that Priyanka would co-produce the film. “The producer and actor are two different sets of people. This is a mere speculation. Sanjay can make it on his own, why will he need a co-producer?,” added Madhu.
Apparently Priyanka was keen to play Amrita Pritam in Gustakhiyan. The film is a poignant tale of the relationship between the legendary poet, Sahir Ludhianvi amd Amrita. “It is a beautiful and coveted subject and it is good that Bhansali is making it. As a matter of fact, only a maker like Sanjay can do justice to it and he should make it,” said Madhu.
Meanwhile, Priyanka is India and busy finalising her Bollywood projects.
