Inshallah: Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt's SLB Film Gets Stalled, Bhansali Productions Make Official Announcement
Massive update on Alia Bhatt and Salman Khan starrer Inshallah! Bhansali productions tweeted saying the film has been shelved for now. This comes a day after Salman Khan's tweet saying Inshallah won't be releasing on Eid 2020.
One of the biggest announcements of 2019 had been the collaboration between Salman Khan and director Sanjay Leela Bhansali. To top it all, the film titled Inshallah was also to star Alia Bhatt in the lead role opposite Salman for the first time. While there was immense discussion too regarding Salman-Alia's pairing thanks to their age-gap, it looks like we may not get to see it after all. After Salman's sudden tweet on August 25 announcing the delay of Inshallah, another shocking update on the film has now been made. Salman Khan Announces 'Inshallah' Delayed, One Day after Alia Bhatt Was Spotted at Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Office!
The official Twitter handle of Bhansali productions announced a fresh update regarding the film on social media. They wrote, "Bhansali Productions has decided to not go ahead with In-shaa-Allah for now... Further announcement will be out soon... God willing."
While we are yet to find out what exactly went wrong, whether it was a date issue for the actors that was causing a delay or whether Salman and Bhansali had a fallout. Let's just say things seemed complicated for Inshallah since the start. The film was earlier announced to release over Eid 2020 which was the same as Rohit Shetty's Akshay Kumar starrer Sooryavanshi. While that straightened out with Shetty graciously moving his release date, looks like some other issues prevailed.
Salman has been busy with the shooting of his December release, Dabangg 3 since the past few months and ever since there was no update on Inshallah. Recently, we spotted Alia Bhatt at Bhansali's office and within two days, this is the latest update on the film. Did Alia walk out of the film and hence it has now been put on a halt? Looks like, we have no option but to wait and watch.
