Ranveer Singh to finally star in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Baiju Bawra

The films of Sanjay Leela Bhansali have always created a lot of curiosity in the media and amidst the masses who love to watch his magnum opus and spectacular visuals. The filmmaker is quite busy with the post production work of Alia Bhatt starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi. But the director is also planning for Baiju Bawra.

It was rumored that Ranbir Kapoor, who made his debut with SLB, might reunite with him to play the titular role, but he turned down to work with him in his musical-historical saga. It was then speculated that Kaartik Aaryan might be play the lead in the film as he is in talks with the filmmaker. But seemingly it might be for some other film, as it was reported that it is Ranveer Singh who plays the lead in Baiju Bawra.  

A source confirmed the news saying, “It is Ranveer Singh who has been finalised. An official announcement is in the offering, but yes, a few modalities yet remain to be worked out. Probably post all that, Bhansali will declare. But as things stand today, it is Ranveer.”
