Priyanka Chopra’s much-anticipated return to Bollywood has fans buzzing, especially after recent speculation linked her to filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming project Love and War. While the actress has already signed on to Farhan Akhtar’s Jee Le Zaraa, updates on the film remain scarce. So, is she really reuniting with Bhansali? Let’s break it down.
Throwback Post Sparks Speculation
The rumours started when Priyanka recently took to Instagram to share a heartfelt tribute to her iconic dance number Ram Chahe Leela from Bhansali’s Goliyon Ki Raas Leela Ram-Leela. She reminisced about the experience, praising Bhansali’s visionary direction, cinematographer Ravi Varman’s brilliance, and choreographer Vishnu Deva’s creativity.
“When Sanjay sir came to me with this song, it was a complicated decision… but I knew I was her,” she wrote, reflecting on her intense preparation and fond memories from the shoot.
Soon after, a report by Hindustan Times claimed that Priyanka might feature in a special dance number in Bhansali’s next film Love and War, which stars Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal. Naturally, fans were excited about a possible reunion.
Industry Insider Clears the Air
However, an industry insider has debunked the rumours, confirming there is no collaboration happening at this point. “Priyanka Chopra Jonas just happened to post a throwback video of her song. While there’s mutual respect between her and Bhansali, there’s no truth to the speculation,” the source revealed.
