Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor meet director Bhansali

Just last week, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt had paid a visit to Sanjay Dutt after hearing about his health concerns and after he was discharged from the hospital
Now, we hear Alia had called on Sanjay Leela Bhansali at his office on Saturday.

Interestingly, accompanying her was beau Ranbir Kapoor, which (naturally) set off rumours and questions about why the Saawariya actor had gone to meet the man who had launched him in 2007.

However, sources clarify that while it was a work visit for Alia and she had gone to meet Sanjay ahead of the release of her film Sadak 2 on an OTT platform, it was a casual one for Ranbir.

“Once the lockdown reverses, Alia hopes to get back to working with Sanjay in his film Gangubai Kathiawadi. Her visit was to figure out when they would go on the floors,” one of the sources informs us also adding that Sanjay has started some pre-production work on Gangubai… and that they have about 30% of the movie to shoot as of now.

Alia and Sanjay have apparently not met once the lockdown was set in and had communicated only via phone calls.

“So, Alia wanted to get a little more clarity on her upcoming films as she has to also shoot for Rajamouli’s RRR once he and the team are good to go,” the source adds.
