Ranveer Singh Gets A Birthday Gift From Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Ranveer Singh is  now finalized to play the eponymous  role in  Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s  Baiju Bawra  . There were  whispers  after the back-to-back failure of two Ranveer starrers Jayeshbhai Jordaar  and Cirkus  that  Bhansali was  reconsidering  his decision  to cast  Ranveer in his most ambitious  musical drama.

Sources  close  to the epic filmmaker completely  debunk this  rumour.

“For  SLB, it was  always  Ranveer  and Alia  for Baiju Bawra. Ranveer  was the first choice for the title  role in Baiju Bawra  after Padmaavat. People advised Bhansali to cast someone else as he had already done three back-to-back films with  Ranveer.  But to Bhansali it doesn’t matter how many times the actors has worked with him. Or whether the actor’s films have succeeded or not.Although  Bhansali has  signed the Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani  pair, Ranveer and Alia, he is  not holding his breath to see that film do well.For Bhansali, the casting of Baiju Bawra is  not reliant on the success  of Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani.”

On July 6 as Ranveer turned a year older, it was finally confirmed that Ranveer will do his  fourth  film with Bhansali.We can’t wait to see the magic the director-actor partnership will generate this time.
