Emraan Hashmi to enter Bhansali’s world
The actor has liked a subject which the filmmaker has discussed with him. If things go according to plan, the two will start working on it next year
For a while now Emraan Hashmi has been making an effort to move out of the Bhatt banner to explore other production houses. After exploring some variety with Dibakar Banerjee and Ekta Kapoor, the actor is poised to enter the world of Sanjay Leela Bhansali. According to insiders, Emraan may soon be signed for one of Bhansali’s future productions.
A source says, “There is a project planned but Bhansali won’t be directing it. He will only be playing the role of a producer and oversee its making. The subject that they have in mind fits Emraan very well. They have discussed the project with him and he too has liked it.”
The film will be directed by Krish, who has earlier directed Gabbar Is Back under the Bhansali banner. The source added, “Currently, Emraan is busy with Azhar and he has another film with the Bhatts. So it will be some time before he starts working on this. Other formalities will be worked out in the meantime.” We tried contacting Emraan but the actor remained unavailable for a comment.
