What Dance Numbers? Alia Is Not Dancing In Bhansali’s Film

 There are reports in a section of  the  media that Alia Bhatt will be performing two  dance  numbers  in Gangubai Kathiawadi . Sources  close to the  film completely debunk these dance aspirations being forward  by fans of Alia and her dancing.

Says a   source very close to  the  project, “Though Gangubai Kathiawadi  is  not a songless film like SLB(Sanjay Leela Bhansali)’s   Black, it is  certainly  not a  musical  like Devdas  or Saawariya. SLB has composed  some songs for the film that are moody atmospheric and mostly  will be played  in  the  background .”

As for Alia, “She plays  a dreaded  criminal. Where will she get space to dance?”
Early in the  film she has a romantic number with  her screen lover played  by tv actor  Shantanu Maheshwari with whom Gangubai elopes as a  teenager, only to be betrayed  by him.

The source also adds  that there will be one  dance  number in  Gangubai, performed by Huma Qureshi.
