Apparently, Bhansali reportedly considered Priyanka Chopra as the leading lady, until Alia came into the picture.
At a recent event, when Alia was asked about Inshallah being shelved, she said that she was very excited about the film but it didn’t work out. At the same time, she also confirmed that a fresh film with Bhansali was happening ‘very soon’.
